Adityavagarwal 5x expanded, in time, long enough, sourced, QPQ done. However, unless I'm missing something, the hook has three factual problems. Here's the language from the source:
"Yarkand hares are shot as a game animal abd about 10,000 furs are produced annually (1958 to 1981) with little sign of decline. Although the population would decline with more intensive agriculture, the present system of allowing fields to revert to scrub from time to time enables hares to persist."
Problem 1: 10,000 furs annually, not total
Problem 2: The source says that there is little sign of a population decline caused by hunting
Problem 3: The source says that there is little sign of a population decline at all --

Adityavagarwal See problems 2 & 3: The source says there was no population decline, let alone one caused by hunting. --
