Answer:

I can think of several reasons

Explanation:

  1. Not all the offspring will survive until they are old enough to propagate

  3. Predators will kill the weak and infirm individuals
  4. Poachers will kill every elephant they can find for their valuable ivory
  5. The land has a limited carrying capacity. Each area has a limited amount of resources available, so the population will level off as it approaches this limit.
