Question

A rare mouse-deer-one of the smallest hoofed animals in the world-has been born at a Hampshire zoo.

The Javan chevrotain was born weighing 370 g (130z) at Marwell Zoo near Winchester, which is currently closed to the public due to the pandemic.

Keepers said the youngster was born to parents Gus and Gwen in the zoo's tropical house and was "doing well".

Tim Rowlands, from the zoo, said, "All deer species will hide their young until they are older, so they will only really come out to feed then hide again."

"There are very few zoos who care for any of the mouse-deer species as they are so small in size, very secretive, and nocturnal, so any youngster born is great news for the conservation breeding program."

It's not known exactly how many of the animals live in the wild on the Indonesian island of Java.

When born, the young are the size of a rat and can run and jump soon after birth. The young suckle only occasionally, and only at night. Marwell Zoo, which is home to more than 140 species, is currently closed to the public because of lockdown restrictions.

Hello Novita,
Kamu diminta untuk menjawab pertanyaan ini berdasarkan teks yang tersedia.

Pertanyaan "Why is the born mouse-deer great for a conservation breeding program?" memiliki makna "Mengapa kancil yang lahir merupakan kabar gembira untuk program pengembangbiakan konservasi?"

Berdasarkan kalimat "There are very few zoos who care for any of the mouse-deer species as they are so small in size, very secretive, and nocturnal, so any youngster born is great news for the conservation breeding program." (Hanya sedikit kebun binatang yang merawat spesies kancil mana pun karena ukurannya sangat kecil, sangat tertutup, dan aktif di malam hari, jadi setiap anak yang lahir merupakan kabar gembira untuk program pengembangbiakan konservasi.) dapat disimpulkan bahwa kelahiran bayi kancil merupakan kabar gembira untuk program pengembangbiakan konservasi karena hanya sedikit kebun binatang yang mau merawat spesies ini.

Dengan demikian, jawaban yang benar adalah C. Only a few zoos care for mouse-deer. (Hanya sedikit kebun binatang yang merawat kancil.)

Semoga mudah dipahami ya penjelasannya, tetap semangat belajar ya.
