27、ted by wildfire in 2014. But wolf 32M and his family remained in existence, bringing the call of the wild back for the first time in a century. These wolves are what Maletzke calls stepping stones in recovery the animals that could help lead the way to new territory not yet repopulated by wolves.Wol

28、ves spread to new territory to find mates and begin packs of their own.

39、stice and human safety issue. These types of conflicts are likely to rise as climate change intensifies (加剧), particularly as mass migrations of people and wildlife increase and resources shift.”But, it doesnt have to be all bad news. “One major motivation in studying the link between climate change

40、 and human-wildlife conflicts is finding solutions,” said Abrahms. “As we learn about specific incidents, we can identify patterns and tends-and come up with interventions (干预) to try to address these conflicts.”Some interventions may be as simple as public-awareness campaigns. Governments can also

41、plan for times when extreme climate events will bring people and wildlife into closer contact. “Once you know the root causes of a conflict, you can design interventions to help both people and wildlife,” said Abrahms. “We can change.”32What does the underlined word “exacerbated” in paragraph 1 mean
