How can the relation between livestock and power be understood from the Maasai example?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: More livestock could increase influence and recovery capacity during crisis

Among the Maasai, cattle were not simply animals kept for food. They were a major form of wealth and could support a family’s social position, influence, and ability to help others. Families with larger herds had more security when drought, disease, land loss, or other crises reduced available resources. They could recover more easily than families that had already lost most of their animals.

Option A is correct because it connects livestock ownership with influence and recovery capacity. This does not mean that cattle guaranteed power in every situation, but they provided an important economic base for power and security. The other choices wrongly separate livestock from authority or treat cattle as objects belonging only to wildlife parks.
