[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The likely consequence of this scenario is that white fur will become predominant. Since mice with white fur are more easily caught by foxes, they are less likely to survive and reproduce. Over time, this will lead to a decrease in the population of mice with white fur and an increase in the population of mice with brown fur.
