Answer 2

The action that seems most likely to cause P to attack domestic animals in a village next to the forest is the hunting of Q by the villagers.

Explanation: Animal P might have started attacking the domestic animals of the village next to the forest as:

• Because of hunting, the population of Q will begin to decline in the forest.
• When there will be lesser or no Q left in the forest due to hunting, P will start searching for food in the areas other than the forest as well.
• Unavailability of Q in the forest will lead P to attack the domestic animal of the nearby village of the forest.
• Hunting or poaching of animals is prohibited by the government still, it is practiced illegally due to which population of various species is declining and the food chain is getting affected.
