A male tiger vas removed from Pench Tiger Reserve and was relocated in Parma National Park. Later, this tiger trekked toward his home 250 miles away. The trek of this solitary tiger highlights a crisis. Many wildlife reserves exist as islands of fragile habitat in a vast sea of humanity, yet tigers can range over a hundred miles, seeking prey, mates and territory. Nearly a third of India's tigers live outside tiger reserves, a situation that is dangerous for both human and animal. Prey and tigers can only disperse if there are recognized corridors of land between protected areas to allow unmolested passage. With reference to the above passage, the following assumptions have been made: The strategy of conversation of wildlife by relocating them from one protected area to another is not often successful. 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?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
India does indeed have legislation in place to aid in the conservation of tiger populations. However, this legislation is not the focus of discussion in this passage, so statement 2 is ruled out. Nevertheless, the absence of wildlife corridors in the country often leads to unsuccessful relocation efforts for wild animals
