Unclear.

The conditions are unclear. 

Usually the problems of that kind are accompanied by explanations, saying 

. . . bla - bla - bla . . . the bird population is proportional to the forest area.

Then the question makes sense and can be resolved. 

Without such explanations the question does not make sense.
