Solution

The correct option is C 604800

Five smaller animals can fit in the four cages so number of ways of choosing $=^5C_4$ now number of permutations $=^5C_4*4$ now the remaining seven cages have to be filled with seven animals so number of permutations=$7^C_7*7!$ so total $=5^C_4*4*7^C_7*7!=604800$
