The food chain would end and ecological balance would be affected.
- If the herbivores are killed, then the carnivores would not be able to get food and would die.
- If carnivores are killed, then the population of herbivores would increase to unsustainable level.
- If producers are killed, then the nutrient cycle in that area would not be completed.
