Answer:
(A) Boak believes the competition's combination of nature appreciation and humor is what drives Fat Bear Week's increase in popularity.
Explanation:
In The Washington Post article "A Fat Bear Week champion has been crowned: 747 is 2020's thickest king" by Natalie B. Compton, the week-long annual tradition of selecting the fattest/ heaviest bear post hibernation's result is declared. This event may also be the only natural and humorous competition that celebrates bears for getting fat.
Naomi Boak, the media ranger for Katmai National Park and Preserve recalls how the competition started and how it is still held every year. Moreover, her comment<em> "how often does one get to celebrate fatness?" </em>proves the point that the competition is a combination of nature appreciation and humor. And it is this very essence that drives Fat Bear Week's increase in popularity, be it through tourist visits or even bear cams where people can see them online.
