Question

[117]. Passage: Fragmented forests isolate animal populations, preventing gene flow and blocking seasonal movement. A corridor of native trees, shrubs and undergrowth can reconnect patches, but only if it is wide enough, free of major barriers, and protected from grazing and fire. Narrow ornamental avenues fail because shy species avoid edges exposed to light, noise and dogs. Corridor design therefore begins with the needs of the most sensitive species, maps water and food along the route, and secures agreement from villages whose fields border the passage. A corridor is a living link, not a line on a map. Which inference can be drawn from the passage?

1.
The passage implies that the issue affects only one small group and no one else.
2.
The passage implies that a single isolated measure will solve the whole problem.
3.
The passage implies that doing nothing is the safest course of action.
4.
The passage implies that a corridor drawn without ecological and social groundwork will not restore movement.
