【分析】
这是一道英语阅读七选五题型，解题思路是先通读全文把握主旨（保护老年野生动物对种群的重要性），再逐个分析每个空白处的上下文逻辑，结合选项的语义和衔接性选出最佳答案。具体来看：第9空需衔接“保护老年动物重要”与“老年动物的作用”，选解释原因的选项；第10空需承接前文老鸟的例子，补充另一种老年动物的例子；第11空需引出后文关于老年动物面临生存问题的内容；第12空需总结前文提到的保护措施的效果。
【解析】
1. 第9空：前文指出“保护老年野生动物非常重要”，后文阐述老年动物对种群的帮助，该空需说明保护的原因，选项C“因为它们有知识帮助种群其他成员生存”符合逻辑，故选C。
2. 第10空：前文以老鸟为例说明老年动物的优势，后文提到祖母鲸的例子，该空需补充另一种老年动物的具体能力，选项E“老象能记住哪些动物友好、哪些不友好”是合适的举例，故选E。
3. 第11空：后文讲述捕鱼、偷猎导致老年动物数量下降，说明老年动物面临生存危机，该空需总起这一问题，选项A“老年动物在世界一些地方面临严重问题”符合，故选A。
4. 第12空：前文提到研究人员提出的保护措施，该空需总结这些措施的效果，选项B“相信通过上述措施老年动物的存活率肯定会提高”是对措施的合理总结，故选B。
