1.The population no longer exists.
2.6000 individuals is more than the habitat can support.
3.The carrying capacity of reindeer is about 6000 since that is the maximum number that was attained.
4.The population crashed because it had increased far past the number of individuals that the habitat could support, so both 1 and 2 could be inferred from the graph.
