Mutualism allowed the two populations to reproduce while occupying the same
ecological niche.

The wolves were predators of the moose, which were otherwise reproductively
successful.
Mutualism allowed the two populations to reproduce while occupying the same
ecological niche.
Speciation occurred when the two populations became reproductively isolated from
each other.
The reproductive rate of the wolves was greater than the reproductive rate of the
moose
