Given what we know, despite not having access to the graph mentioned in order to provide a detailed answer, we can make the estimated guess that the grey wolf population probably experienced the greatest growth in 1994.

Why is C the most appropriate answer?

  • The information given describes an increase in population during these years.
  • The increase is a 7 fold increase to that of the years prior to the disaster.
  • The options each list scenarios in which the population decreases, which is not consistent with the information provided.
  • Option C is the only non-decreasing option.

Therefore, given the information that during the years mentioned the population of wolves increased by seven times its number from before the disaster, we can confirm that since option C is the only option that does not describe a decrease in population, this must be the correct choice.
