Several years ago, the number of wood bison became so low that conservationists began breeding the wood bison in an enclosed refuge. In this time, the number of wood bison has tripled and, according to conservationists, this number is enough for a species to remain viable in the wild. Yet since the wood bison’s habitat is still imperiled, conservationists plan to move the wood bison 2,000 miles away, where the American buffalo, a distinct species, flourishes. The conservationists predict that such a plan will allow for the long-term viability of the wood bison as a species.
Which of the following, if true, calls into question the conservationist’s prediction?
A The American buffalo and the wood bison can thrive off of the same resources.
B No wood bison has ever been within 1,000 miles of the area in which the conservationists are planning to move the herd.
C The American buffalo and the wood bison readily mingle, and, in the past, this has lead the two species to mix so that the number of actual wood bison declines steadily.
D American buffalo once shared territory with the wood bison, but the American buffalo’s territory slowly moved south so that now the American buffalo no longer inhabits the same area as the wood bison.
E Not all of the predators that hunt the wood bison hunt the American buffalo.

A This strengthens the argument
B Bidirectional, it could mean either the bison would thrive in this new area or the opposite
C If the number of actual wood bison declines when put together with the buffalo then we have reason to weaken the argument. Correct
D Does not weaken the argument.
E Predators are not mentioned in the argument. Out of scope

Background info: Several years ago, conservationists began breeding wood bison in an enclosed refuge, because their population fell to concerning levels.
Background info: Since that time, the wood bison population has tripled, and is now large enough for them to remain viable in the wild.
Premise: As the wood bison’s habitat is still imperiled, the conversationists have planned to move the reinvigorated population 2,000 miles away, to an area where the American buffalo flourishes.
Conclusion: They predict that their plan will support the long-term viability of the wood bison.
We’re looking to weaken the argument.
A. This strengthens the conservationists’ prediction. Obviously the wood bison will do better if they have access to resources they can thrive on.
B. This could be tempting, but is irrelevant. I’ve never been within 1000 miles of Japan, but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t survive there.
C. This weakens the argument. If there’s already a decent population of buffalo in the area, and in the past the two species had mixed, which resulted in declining wood bison populations, then the conservationists’ plan to move the wood bison near the buffalo to support the wood bison population might result in a similar decline.
D. Irrelevant. Without a solid reason for the migration that would point to a danger for the wood bison population, this doesn’t mean anything for the argument.
E. Without being more specific, this is irrelevant. It doesn’t say anything about the predators that actually live in the area the conservationists are considering.
Best answer is C.

Looking at the argument, we can deduce that the conservationists is planning to increase as well as sustain the number of wood bison. In the last line, he has given the conclusion. As it is a weaken type of question, our step is to identify the conclusion, and then we have to check the options that which one perfectly align with information & premise given. If the given option does not support the conclusion and dismisses the conclusion, then that is our answer. Option C has that info which perfectly fits with the argument and weakens the conclusion when inserted with the fact.
