Question

animals have taken over islands around the world. the cottony cushion scale was an invasive insect that found its way to the galapagos islands and threatened more than sixty plant species there. in 2002, australian ladybugs were introduced on the islands and proved very effective at reducing the scale population. on tonawanda island, a small island in the niagara river near buffalo, hundreds of feral cats had taken over. locals were concerned about the cats. they dealt with the issue by safely trapping the cats, finding homes for kittens, and spaying or neutering adults. ilha da queimada grande, a small island off the coast of brazil, is infested with venomous lancehead snakes. to make sure no one gets hurt by the snakes, humans arent allowed on the island. match the problems with their solutions. cats overran tonawanda island. dangerous snakes dominate ilha da queimada grande. scale insects were hurting plants on the galapagos islands. problem solution australian ladybugs were introduced. locals caught them. people were banned from the island.

• For "Cats overran Tonawanda Island", it states "Locals dealt with the issue by safely trapping the cats, finding homes for kittens, and spaying or neutering adults", so the solution "Locals caught them" (the trapping part is a form of catching in a sense) matches.
• For "Dangerous snakes dominate Ilha da Queimada Grande", it says "humans aren't allowed on the island", so the solution "People were banned from the island" matches.
