What might happen if tigers, another large cat that relies on the same food source as the lions, are introduced to the ecosystem?​

Answer:

The food source will become scarce, endangered, or extinct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a new species is introduced that eats the same food source as another, that food source is now being eaten 2x the amount it was before.

Then the amount of prey would most likely become limited (or even extinct)
