A science class helped to estimate the population of various species in their local woods. Initially they tagged various numbers of 3 different species. The class then returned several weeks later to count each of the species that they had originally tagged. For each species, they kept track of the total
counted, and the number with tags. Here are their results:
Species
Number Initially
Tagged
Total Number

Tags
Quail

Owl
37
18

Based on the data samples collected, which statement shows a reasonable estimate?
There are about 87 owls in the woods.
There are more owls than quails in the woods.
There are approximately twice as many owls as lynxes.
The species that was tagged the most has the highest population
