Population ecologists study what determines the occurrence and abundance of species in space and time: their geographic ranges, population sizes and densities, what factors result in them being so rare or common, and why these characteristics change over time.

Thus, the constraints are the shape of the curve of diminishing returns and the travel time (the time it takes to make a round trip from the nest to a patch and back).

Animals can also redirect successional trajectories for whole communities, changing the final community structure dramatically.
