It offers only a one-way ticket.BHumans kill large carnivores-a category of animals that includes wolves, bear
7、s, lions, tigers and pumas-at more than nine times their death rate in the wild. Although they may not be our prey (猎物) in the traditional sense, new research shows that some of the worlds biggest carnivores are responding to humans in a way that resembles how prey animals react to predators (捕食者).
8、Biologists at the Santa Cruz Puma Project, an ongoing research effort in the mountains of Californias central coast, report that even the scary puma, or mountain lion, shows its fearful side when people are around.In a recent study, the researchers followed 17 mountain lions outfitted with GPS colla
9、rs (项圈) to the animals deer kill sites. Once the cats naturally left the scene between feedings, ecologist Justin A. Smith, now at the University of California Berkeley, and her team trained motion-activated cameras on the prey bodies. On the animals return, the cameras triggered nearby speakers, wh
10、ich broadcast recordings of either frogs croaking (呱呱叫) or humans conversing.The pumas almost always fled immediately on hearing the human voices, and many never returned to resume feeding or took a long time to do so. But they only rarely stopped eating or fled when they heard the frogs. They also
11、spent less than half as much time feeding during the 24 hours after first hearing human chatter, compared with hearing the frogs, the team reported.The human presence in such a situation has far-reaching consequences. A previous study found that Santa Cruz pumas living near residential areas killed
12、36 percent more deer than those in less populated places. The new finding could explain why: if the cats are scared away from their kills before they finish feeding, they may be taking more prey to compensate. And fewer deer could mean more plants go uneaten, according to Chris Darimont, a professor
13、 of conservation science at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, who was not involved in the study. Thus, fear of humans may alter the entire food chain.“Humans are the most significant source of death for pumas in this population even though the cats are not legally hunted for food or sp
14、ort,” Smith says. “Many are hunted illegally, struck by vehicles or legally killed by governmental agencies as a means of protecting livestock. So they have good reason to be fearful of us,” she adds. Darimont predicts other large carnivores would show similar responses because humans have effective

By getting to the kill sties and broadcasting all types of sounds.C. By observing pumas reaction to frogs croakin
16、g or humans voices.D. By counting how long pumas spent eating in different backgrounds.59. According to the passage, humans presence will lead to _.A. less deer being eaten B. more plants left uneatenC. pumas occupying less populated areas D. more puma feeding times within a day60. Smiths attitude towards the government hunting pumas is _.A.
