How many of them were at the top of the food chain?
- ProAm 9y agoA lot of them at the time.

E.g. if food for small rodents becomes much less available, the expected result is that small rodent species dwindle in population but survive, while some of large predators that need those small rodents may go extinct. Cockroaches and rats will outlast homo sapiens.
