A warren of rabbits lives in a field. the farmer near the field notice that about half the young rabbits have normal rabbit paws, and the other half have larger fluffier paws. For some reason there is more snow this year than normal and more foxes than usual. the next summer the farmer believes that 3/4ths of the young rabbits have the larger fluffier paws. Why do you think that is?
