Hi @cheynnelee,

Thanks for the question! I wouldn’t diagram the question in that way. What you diagrammed says

“if there was sheep farming or no hard evidence, then the Tasmanian tiger isn’t extinct”

which isn’t exactly what the argument is saying. There’s not really conditional logic being used here, so I wouldn’t have diagrammed that.

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any other questions that you might have.
