Comparative Physical and Behavioral Traits of Snow Leopards and Arctic Foxes Observed in 2022

In their search for prey, Arctic foxes and snow leopards show different success rates that greatly affect their survival. Predators’ daily food requirement and hunting success often depend on their body size, as it influences their visibility and energy needs. Snow leopards, with their larger body size, are more noticeable and spend more energy than smaller animals. A scientist proposed that Arctic foxes, being smaller, would likely have a higher hunting success rate and require less daily food intake than snow leopards.

Which choice best describes data from the table that support the scientist’s proposal?

Snow leopards are much taller and have thicker fur than Arctic foxes, which could make them less agile hunters.
Snow leopards and Arctic foxes both have fur thickness that reflect their adaptation to cold environments.
Snow leopards show a lower hunting success rate and have a higher daily food consumption than Arctic foxes.
Despite their larger size, snow leopards consume less food per day than their Arctic fox counterparts.
