Why does the family build a fort on the edge of the savannah? A. to watch for ships that might approach the island B. to prevent native islanders from attacking their home C. to protect themselves from the wild animals on that part of the island D. to store crops from the family's fields of European grains
More than likely C. I think this because Wild animals tend to live closer to the center of the island, because their instincts tell them that the island will flood someday. Hope this helped! Thanks!
