OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
E
Three of the choices open with "dangers", while the other two start with "that the dangers". By comparing the dangers posed by the snake to the dangers posed by "more mundane matters", the sentence requires "recognized that", because the traveler recognized a fact. The traveler may have "recognized dangers" (by which we would mean that he realized that dangers were present), but that's not what the sentence is about. Eliminate (A), (B), and (C).
(D) is incorrect because of the "are" at the end of the sentence. It's generally bad form to end a sentence with a verb, and it's unnecessary in this case. It is also poor style to repeat the word "dangers" when "those" would suffice. Choice (E) is correct.
