Answer:

Decrease in the population of coyote occurs after the reintroduction of the wolf within the Adirondacks effect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wolves are the top predator in the ecosystem. They hate coyote and kill them and sometime eat them too. So the reintroduction of the wolf decreases the population of coyote by killing them directly and by consuming the prey and the coyote die due to hunger. Coyote feed on rabbit, snakes, deer, fruits and grasses so decrease in coyote population increases the availability of grasses and other animals for different animals.
