they don't. they just produce more offspring than the habitat they are allowed can support. all wild animals today were built over hundreds of thousands of years to produce enough to avoid extinction. a couple hundred years of spreading suburbs and citys isn't going to change their habits.

∙ 14y agoA population will continue to reproduce until the environment limits production. Even bacteria and virus' are bound to this rule, even to the extent of killing their environment for reproduction. As are humans, despite that fact that logically we could reason to how many people this world can support, who would dictate who lives and/or dies? If it were dictated would every human agree to it? Should they agree to it?
Nature is selfish, all things in nature exist to their own selfish good, even cooperation of organisms happens for selfish cause. By this fact a population will continue to produce more organisms until it is either limited by the environment or until the environment is destroyed.
This leaves us with the question: will humans reproduce to the point of killing our host, or will the host limit reproduction before that happens?

Does Jupiter have living organisms?
There is no evidence to suggest that Jupiter has any living organisms. Jupiter's extreme environment, characterized by high levels of radiation and harsh atmospheric conditions, make it highly unlikely to support any form of life as we know it.
Does water affect exothermic organisms?
Water can have a significant impact on exothermic organisms as it helps regulate their body temperature. By providing a medium for heat exchange, water helps these organisms prevent overheating or cooling down too much. Additionally, water is essential for various metabolic processes that support the functioning of exothermic organisms.
Is unicller microscopic-visible?
No, unicellular organisms are microscopic, meaning they are too small to be visible to the naked eye. They are made up of a single cell, unlike multicellular organisms which are made up of many cells.
What are two reasons why many organisms never become part of the fossil record?
Many organisms have soft bodies that decompose quickly after death, leaving no trace behind. Additionally, many organisms live in environments that are not conducive to fossilization, such as areas with high rates of erosion or volcanic activity.
What other forms of life do trees support?
Trees support a diverse range of life, including birds, insects, mammals, fungi, and various plants. Trees provide habitat, food, and shelter for many species, contributing to overall ecosystem health and biodiversity. Additionally, trees help create microclimates that can support a wide variety of organisms.
What is a large area of the world with too much rainfall to be a desert but too little rainfall to support a forest?
A grassland
Why must a food chain be kept at not more than 4 or 5 organisms?
Limiting a food chain to 4-5 organisms helps in maintaining energy efficiency as each organism at a trophic level only receives about 10% of the energy from the organism it consumes. With each transfer of energy, there is a loss of energy, so longer food chains would result in less energy being available to higher trophic levels. Additionally, having fewer organisms in a food chain reduces the risk of instability and collapse due to disruptions at any level.

How many people live on the sun?
No one lives on the sun as it is a star composed of gases like hydrogen and helium where temperatures reach millions of degrees Celsius. It is not a suitable environment for human life.
Which swimsuits provide the most support while not looking too daring?
Swim suits with underwire in the bust area add support as well as those that tie or hang around the neck.
What percent of oxygen to much to support life?
The percent of oxygen is 27. this increases the natural percent of 21 by 6 percent causing living organisms to have too much oxygen.
What eats bioluminescent organisms?
Your question is much too vague. There are many bioluminescent organisms. People say that as much as 80% or underwater live has some form of bioluminescense.
Why can't people regrow arms?
because our DNA is too complex and we have too many chromosomes as organisms become complexer, they lose their regeneration ability
What are the applications and devices that Linux can support?
Linux distributions can support hundreds of thousands of devices and programs, far too many to list.
