Hiroki is using a quotation from this source to write his research paper:Mackler, Mindy. “The Forest Elephant.” The Journal Nature and Science (2012): 82-91. Print.Which is the correct way to cite a quotation in the body of his paper using MLA style?

An MLA in-text citation for a source with a named author uses the author’s last name and the page number, with no comma between them. The citation should therefore be (Mackler 91), making D, “In truth, the forest elephant may soon become extinct” (Mackler 91), correct. The title is not used in place of the author when the author is identified.
