During spring, when Earl's crops were plentiful, he noticed an increased number of rabbits. At night, he also heard an increased number of howls from the coyotes. What do you think will happen when winter comes around and the crops die out?

The question is giving us the following scenario: During spring, when Earl's crops were plentiful, he noticed an increased number of rabbits. At night, he also heard an increased number of howls from the coyotes. We see here that the rabits were plentiful when there were a lot of crops and we could guess that the rabits would feed on the crops. So, during the winter, there would be no or less rabits and the same holds for coyotes - no or less coyotes would be seen

Answer: Both the rabbit and coyote population could decrease because the original food supply decreased.

During the spring when there is an ample amount of food available to them, then there will be increased in the rabbit and coyotes population as there will be no competition among them for food.

But during winter the crops would die out so there is a scarcity of food and there is competition among the rabbit and coyotes population for the food, as a result of that their population started to decline from that area.
