A population of rabbits is largely brown in coat color; however, they have small white spots. These spots vary among individuals within the population, such that some individuals have very many white spots while other individuals have very few. This population is exposed to a new, and rapidly growing hawk population. These hawks, unlike their previous predators, are particularly good at finding rabbits with patches of white fur. They are more likely to capture and eat rabbits with more white patches. With respect to the rabbit coat coloration, this is most likely result in
