I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. Yes, an increase in pesticide use would likely have a negative effect on the population of long-billed curlews. As pesticides kill many of the insects that the curlews rely on for food, their population would likely decrease in response. So, the correct answer would be: It would decrease.
