I almost got this wrong. I selected B and was about to change my answer until I re-read that it said 1986 court case. Then it confirmed for me that B was correct.
Make sure you take your time and thoroughly read through the question and don't be afraid to take a few extra seconds to re-read a sentence or two in the passage. It could make the difference between a right answer slightly over time or a wrong answer under time.
Not entirely certain why I got it right but I guess I should trust POE more because it took 1:30 over time, just repeating in my head why the four other answers were wrong
this question took me 6 minutes, it was not until the last minute that I realized it was only regarding 1986, which encompasses like 2 sentences. I got it right! Your reminder to read closely and carefully!
The law from 1910 prevented the Indians from hunting the sea otters. However the 1972 law, which reaffirmed the 1910 law, also made an exception to allow traditional hunting. But, since the Indians were prohibited from hunting sea otters for 62 years, the continuity of the tradition was effectively lost.
FWS said that only those authentic native articles that were produced before 1972 are included in this exception, but since the natives stopped using sea otter pelts for 62 years, FWS prohibited them from hunting them. They said this because they had not hunted them "within living memory".
The first court case did not acknowledge this 62-year-gap as the reason why the natives were not included in the 1972 law exemption, and upheld the ban on the natives from hunting the sea otter pelt.

This question took me almost 10 minutes and I can't believe it was only a level 3 haha

Almost got my ass, very cheeky. Got it at the last moment.
this was actually very tricky
Super happy that I got a question like this right

I got too confident and didn't go back to check, and I mixed up the 1986 case and 1991 case.
Found this question especially difficult
I don't see the connection between continuity - FWS and the first court case. #help

Hope this helps
