Answer:

they could go extinct

Step-by-step explanation:

rabbits are a mojor source of food for foxes. foxes are known for eating smaller animals like rabbits. it's also very hard to catch any other smaller animals in the wild, so, they'd be losing a major source of food and could starve.

Answer:

The foxes would eventually disappear.

Step-by-step explanation:

Foxes eat rabbits. So if the foxes' food supply (rabbits) disappeared, then the foxes will either starve and die or they will move somewhere else to find food.
