Must be FalseDiff: Hardest
Logic Breakdown
Passage Summary: Crows sleep in one spot and fly very far away to find food, but when they pick a new place to sleep, they stay very close to their old neighborhood.
Reasoning: Crows hunt in a massive radius (up to 130km) from their roosts, yet when they move their roosting site, they typically move it less than 8km away.
Analysis: Since this is a 'Must be False' style question, we need to find a claim that contradicts the provided geographic rules. The most vulnerable point is the massive discrepancy between the hunting range (130km) and the relocation distance (8km). Any claim suggesting that a flock moves its roost specifically to reach a completely new, non-overlapping hunting territory would likely be false, as an 8km move is a drop in the bucket compared to a 130km hunting radius. Focus on statements that ignore these specific distance constraints.

Correct Answer
E
E claims that when a flock moves roosts, it generally does so because its hunting area has been depleted. But flocks can forage up to 100–130 km from a roost, and when they move roosts they usually shift less than 8 km—too small a change to solve a broad depletion problem. Plus, they normally occupy the same roost for years, which also counters the idea of frequent moves due to depletion. So E is justifiably rejected by the given facts.
