The mice became prey to the introduced snakes, allowing the snake population to increase but decreasing the mice populationc. The snakes introduced to the region competed with the mice for food, allowing the snake population to increase but decreasing the mice populationd. The people in the surrounding are set traps that killed the mice, allowing the snakes to live without any predators and therefore to increase in number
