I think the answer is C) increased number of predators. 

Antelopes are herbivores, they have a lot of predators that are out to hunt them.  The predators that hunt them are humans, wild dogs, eagles, lions and other more animals. 

Answer: C) increased number of predators

Explanation:

Antelope are the deer like mammals. They belong to the family of Bovidae. They have hollow horns, which deer do not posses. These animals are native of Savanna biome of Africa.

These are herbivorous animals. According to the given situation, grass which can be the source of food for these animals will be plentiful due to rainfall thus there will be no competition for food among these animals. Thus these animals can only be reduced by the increase in the number of predators.
