According to a study by a conservation group representing 11 tribal nations in the Great Lakes region, the lake trout (namegos in the Ojibwe language) will have significantly worse outcomes over the next 50 years if temperatures increase as much as some models suggest. By contrast, the bald eagle (migizi in Ojibwe) should be able to withstand the highest predicted warming without much harm and so likely won't require the conservation efforts that the lake trout will.

US government agencies involved in conservation are unfortunately not able to address every possible threat to natural resources. They must use the best information available to decide which species are most threatened and therefore most in need of conservation efforts.
Based on the texts, both authors would most likely agree with which statement?
A collaborative approach is necessary to keep temperatures in the Great Lakes region from increasing to the highest predicted levels.
A
Agencies involved in natural-resource management in the Great Lakes region should focus their conservation efforts more on the lake trout than on the bald eagle.
B
State, federal, and tribal groups involved in natural-resource management in the Great Lakes region should immediately begin conservation programs for both the lake trout and bald eagle.
C
Conservation efforts focused on the lake trout are more likely to be successful if they incorporate state and federal agency resources with the knowledge of tribal groups in those efforts.
