The correct answer is: C. Their populations are often small and unable to recover quickly.

Poached species are often more vulnerable to extinction because they tend to have small populations, which makes it harder for them to recover from the loss of individuals due to poaching. When a species' population is already small, the removal of even a few individuals can have a significant impact on its ability to breed and maintain genetic diversity, slowing or preventing recovery. This is especially true for species that reproduce slowly or have specific ecological requirements.
