The Farallon's are now home to the world's largest population of western gull. Seals have returned, as well as otters and sea lions, which in turn attracts great white sharks. The combination of sharks, underwater currents, and jagged coastline are probably what earned the Farallon's their nickname "Devil's Teeth," though it hasn't stopped a few adventurous people from swimming. Four people have completed the 30-mile swim from the islands to San Francisco; the fastest person completed the journey in 14 hours.

In 1932, the Australian government lost war against the native emu population. the operation that has since become known as great emu war began as an initiative to combat overpopulation of the crop-destroying birds invading farmland around Chandler and Walgooglan. The initial assault on the flightless avian began November 2 and lasted six days before the military personnel withdrew. efforts resumed on November 12, but by early December, the feathered foes had adopted guerrilla tactics against the targeted wheat fields, rendering military involvement largely ineffective. The Australian government declined further involvement with the ongoing conflict in 1934, 1943, and 1948, despite repeated pleas for assistance by the farmers in the area.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following statements is a logical conclusion based on this report?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The report details the unsuccessful attempts by the Australian government to combat the emu population from 1932. Despite military involvement in the Great Emu War, the emus adapted guerrilla tactics, rendering the efforts largely ineffective. The government declined further involvement with the ongoing conflict in 1934, 1943, and 1948. Therefore, the logical conclusion based on this report is that emus continued to destroy crops in the area through the 1930s and 1940s, as there is no indication of successful eradication or control of the emu population during this period.
