I just felt as if animals could have been anything so that's why i strayed away from that answer but it was the most logical

I just thought the conclusion referenced answer B since the author stated "But that is precisely why..." with that referencing what was stated right before that sentence.

In order to form an argument, is a conditional indicator/qualifier required or at least the case most times on the LSAT?

It would just be a W, no double negations. Group 3, so if you decide to go with the first clause then you negate written (W) and since a "no" is present, it would be W.

If you decide to go with clause 2 then you negate truth (T) and you get (/W) since you the no is present and you eventually get the contrapositive if you choose that angle!

You'll treat each statement like the drill before assigning symbols. Then you'll match each symbol and move to the next after each match. The contrapositive should be almost inversely opposite. Hope this helps!

interested also!
