After reading paragraph 2, Luna Ray made the inference that a pet goldfish could be released into the wild without endangering native animals. What deal from paragraph 3 or 4 is evidence that this inference should be revised.


Paragraphs 3 and 4- Even when unwanted pets are native to the area where they are released, they can still endanger local wildlife. Pets may carry diseases picked up in captivity, which owners may not even know their pets have. Released pets can spread these diseases to wildlife. Sometimes these diseases are fatal to the wild animals.

There are other dangers as well. Releasing a pet into the wild can put the animal at risk. In the wild, former pets are vulnerable to predators and at risk of starving or dying of exposure.


a. In the wild, former pets are at risk of starving or dying of exposure.
b. In the wild, former pets can be vulnerable to predators.
c. A pet may not know how to survive in the wild.
d. Pets may carry diseases picked up in captivity.

Nevermind its D.
