27 multiple choice 2 points why was the st. matthew island reindeer herd considered unsustainable? they reproduced too slowly their food source could not regenerate fast enough they migrated seasonally they were controlled by predator pressure
The St. Matthew Island reindeer herd's population grew rapidly. Their food source (lichen) couldn't regenerate fast enough to support the large number of reindeer. Reproducing too slowly would not lead to unsustainability in this context. Seasonal migration was not the issue. There was no significant predator pressure (as the island had limited predators).
