Answer

Brief Explanations:

To solve this, we analyze each term:

  • Prowling: Means moving stealthily (e.g., hunting), not related to moving between regions. Eliminate.
  • Emigrating: Refers to leaving one's native region to settle elsewhere. The lions leave Kenya (their previous range) to move to South Africa, so this fits.
  • Immigrating: Is entering a new region to settle, but from the lions' perspective of leaving Kenya, emigrating is more accurate (immigrating would be from South Africa's perspective of receiving them). Eliminate.
  • Venturing: Implies a risky or exploratory move, not a formal ecological movement term. Eliminate.

Answer:

B. emigrating (assuming the options are labeled with letters, but based on the content, the correct option text is "emigrating")
