To solve this problem, we need to determine which animal has the lowest population according to the given data. Here is a step-by-step explanation:

1. List the population of each animal:
- Mountain lions: 150
- Bobcats: 300
- Coyotes: 10,000
- Deer: 25,000

2. Compare the populations:
- Mountain lions: 150
- Bobcats: 300 (300 is greater than 150)
- Coyotes: 10,000 (10,000 is greater than 150)
- Deer: 25,000 (25,000 is greater than 150)

3. Identify the smallest population:
- Mountain lions have the smallest population of 150.

4. Conclusion:
- The animal with the lowest population, and hence the lowest bar on the bar graph, is the Mountain lion.

Thus, the Mountain lions would have the lowest bar on the bar graph.
