Directions: The critical reasoning question given below consists of passage followed by a question. You must read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer from the alternatives given below.

Passage: Tigers are known for living in dense forest areas, away from human settlements. But a group of tigers in central India has shown a difference in behaviour, becoming comfortable in an urban setting. Around five tigers in Central India’s Chandrapur region have been observed living in a thermal power station over the past four to five years. Forest officials and wildlife biologists say that these tigers are trying to adjust themselves, through behavioural changes, with protected areas getting saturated. Unlike leopards, tigers don’t usually like living near human-dominated habitats. But if such cases of tigers in urban areas increase, there may be more human-animal conflict in the future, warn conservationists.

Which of the following can be deciphered about the extend of forests and protected area cover of Central India’s Chandrapur region?

1
Inadequate to protect and foster all the animal species.
2
Adequate to protect and foster all the animal species.
3
