Tiger sharks are common in the water surrounding Tenare island. Usually tiger sharks feed on smller sharks, but sometimes they have attacked tourists swimming and surfing at beaches. This has hurt tourism industry, which is second only to its fishing industry in annual revenues. In order to help the economy, therefore, the mayor of the island has proposed and ongoing program to kill any tiger sharks within a mile of the beach.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly calls into question the likelihood that implementation of the mayor's proposal will have the desire consequence?
A. Even if not all the tiger sharks that come to the beach are killed, the existence of the program would reassure tourists.
B. Business owners who depend on tourism are willing to pay most of the cost of implementing the program
C. Tourists come to Tenare Island especially for its beaches.
D. The small sharks on which tiger sharks prey feed on fish that are commercially important to the island's fisheries.
E. Not all tourists who come to Tenare Island enjoy swimming or surfing.
