“Require” bossy verb or a subjunctive.
“To enforce” is gone since we need the “be enforced”. Also the sentence meaning is illogical with “to enforce”
Require regulations to enforce?
We don’t need regulations to enforce something. We need the regulations themselves be enforced.
A,D and E gone.
Between B and C, B has a fragment problem, after the relative pronoun that (saying “that”) what should follow is a full clause.
Subject - their most effective guidelines
Where is the verb?
What follows is again a “that” plus something construction. So we have a fragment here.
B is gone. C is our winner as it fixes the error in B and has the proper subjunctive mood usage.

The actual sentence is
Last week, Selous Game Reserve park rangers sent out a press release highlighting how their efforts to repopulate the African elephant have been successful, saying that their most effective guidelines requiring that zero-poaching regulations to enforce protecting adult tusk-bearing elephants.
We have two participle modifiers :
VERB+ING without comma :
1. "a press release highlighting how..."
The verb+ing without comma modifies immediately close noun and acts similar to adjective. The phrase "highlighting how..." modifies ONLY "a press release"
2. " most effective guidelines requiring that zero-poaching regulations"
The phrase "requiring that zero-poaching regulations" modifies just the "guidelines"
Thus, dropping the modifiers the sentence turns out :
Reserve park rangers sent out a press release highlightinghow their efforts to repopulate the African elephant have been successful, saying that their most effective guidelines requiring that zero-poaching regulations to enforce protecting adult tusk-bearing elephants.
VERB+ING with comma:
Selous Game Reserve park rangers sent out a press release highlighting how their efforts to repopulate the African elephant have been successful, saying that their most effective guidelines requiring that zero-poaching regulations to enforce protecting adult tusk-bearing elephants.
Here "saying that.." after comma modifies the preceding clause i.e. what (impact) did the rangers' press release do.
The fragments following SAYING THAT should be a clause.
(A) requiring that that zero-poaching regulations to enforce protecting
The sentence (without noun modifiers verb+ing) - Reserve park rangers sent out a press release,saying that their most effective guidelines - is incomplete. The fragments after SAYING THAT should be a clause.
(B) that require zero-poaching regulations be enforced to protect
Reserve park rangers sent out a press release,saying that their most effective guidelines that require ... - is incomplete. The fragments after SAYING THAT should follow a clause.
(C) require that zero-poaching regulations be enforced to protect
Require is a verb in command subjunctive here. the format is : <verb> THAT <noun> <bare form>
BE is correct bare form. We have a clause here after SAYING THAT. Correct.
(D) require that zero-poaching regulations to enforce protecting
Incorrect form for command subjunctive.
(E) require zero-poaching regulations to enforce protection
The sentence turns out -
Reserve park rangers sent out a press release , saying that their most effective guidelines require zero-poaching regulations to enforce protection.
Here we need command subjunctive.
IMO C
