Question

With reference to the above passage about tiger conservation, the following assumptions have been made :
1. The strategy of conservation of wildlife by relocating them from one protected area to another is not often successful.
2. India does not have suitable legislation to save the tigers, and its conservation efforts have failed which forced the tigers to live outside protected areas.

Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?

Accepted Answer

Correct Option: 1 only Assumption 1 is valid because the passage provides the specific example of a tiger relocated from Pench to Panna that trekked 250 miles back to its home, indicating that relocating wildlife from one protected area to another without corridor connectivity is often unsuccessful or problematic. Assumption 2 is invalid because the passage does not discuss India's legislation, nor does it state that conservation efforts have completely failed; it merely highlights a specific spatial challenge (the lack of corridors). Therefore, only Assumption 1 is valid, making Option A the correct answer.

Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?
