In а pоpulаtiоn оf аrctic foxes, the thickness of their winter fur is determined entirely by the amount of protein they consume during the autumn months. After a series of unusually cold winters, a new species of high-protein rodent migrates into the area. Foxes that eat these rodents grow significantly thicker fur, which allows them to survive the freezing temperatures better than foxes with thinner fur. How will this population of foxes evolve (in regard to the thick fur phenotype) in response to these colder winters?
