A population of squirrels living in a little habitat covering 150 hectares is at 80% of the carrying capacity of 1500. Assuming that the squirrels have a uniform distribution, what is the population density

Population density = number of individual divided land area

land area should be in square kilometers

therefore 120 ha = 120 x0.01=1.2 square kilometer since 1 ha=0.01 kilometer square

total population = (80 x 1500) / 100=1200

population density is therefore=1200/1.2=1000
