In1992 outlaw fishing boats began illegally harvesting lobsters from theterritorial waters of the country of Belukia. Soon after, the annual tonnage oflobster legally harvested in Belukian waters began declining; in 1996, despitethere being no reduction in the level of legal lobster fishing activity, thelocal catch was 9,000 tons below pre-1992 levels. It is therefore highly likelythat the outlaw fishing boats harvested about 9,000 tons of lobster illegallythat year. Whichof the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
- The illegal lobster harvesting was not so extensive that the population of catchable lobsters in Belukia’s territorial waters had sharply declined by 1996
- The average annual lobster catch, in tons, of an outlaw fishing boat is has increased steadily since 1992.
- Outlaw fishing boats do not, as a group, harvest more lobsters than do licensed lobster-fishing boats.
- The annual legal lobster harvest in Belukia in 1996 was not significantly less than 9,000 tons.
- A significant proportion of Belukia’s operators of licensed lobster-fishing boats were out of business between 1992 and 1996
