The population of desert tortoises in Targland's Red Desert has declined, partly because they are captured for sale as pets and partly because people riding all-terrain vehicles have damaged their habitat. Targland plans to halt this population decline by blocking the current access routes into the desert and announcing new regulations to allow access only on foot. Targland's officials predict that these measures will be adequate, since it is difficult to collect the tortoises without a vehicle.
Which of the following would it be most important to establish in order to evaluate the officials' prediction?
Whether possessing the tortoises as pets remains legally permissible in Targland
Whether Targland is able to enforce the regulations with respect to all-terrain vehicle entry at points other than the current access routes
Whether the Red Desert tortoises are most active during the day or at night
Whether people who travel on foot in the Red Desert often encounter the tortoises
Whether the Targland authorities held public hearings before restricting entry by vehicle into the Red Desert
没有车捉龟很难,人们开车去沙漠捉龟,车还破坏乌龟栖息地,导致乌龟数量下降,政府为阻止这一现象,封闭目前去沙漠的路线
如果只是封闭当前去沙漠的路线,也不见得其他人不会开发其他路线开车去沙漠
B 政府能否管控车辆,而不是封闭沙漠的路线,因为开车能捉鬼还破坏栖息地,所以管控车辆更有效
