By 2011, the total population was estimated at fewer than 2,500 individuals with a decreasing trend.

I sprayed some bug killer on it.

The more complex and costly the mechanisms used, the less fit the resistant population will be. That cancer cells pay a price for resistance is supported by several observations.

The more complex and costly the mechanisms used, the less fit the resistant population will be.

The animal is certainly small, and so is unfortunately its population.

Only the hum of flies, like that of a swarm of bees, sounded continually high up in the birch trees beneath which he stood, and occasionally the children's voices reached him.

They also often support bee and other pollinator populations, in addition to improving air quality and storing carbon.

This is similar to peripatric speciation in that a small population enters a new habitat, but differs in that there is no physical separation between these two populations.

In his ears rang incessantly a variety of sounds now of a busy working bee flying swiftly past, now of a buzzing idle drone, then of the excited bee sentinels guarding their treasure from a foe and prepared to sting.

Lions now occupy just 25 percent of their historical African range and their populations are declining, largely due to loss of habitat and prey and retaliatory killing.

They were introduced to Puerto Rico through the exotic pet trade and today are considered an invasive species, so much so that in a few decades the 4 million strong population now outnumbers the entire population of Puerto Rico.

During this period, which the scientist Will Steffen dubbed the Great Acceleration, the human population became sufficiently large and connected, with high enough consumption, to become a major global force.

By contrast, the economists Kurt Dopfer, John Foster, and Jason Potts have developed a Macro Meso Micro theory of evolutionary economics in which an economic system is a population of rules, a structure of rules, and a process of rules.
