What is the main purpose of hunter education?

  1. To improve a hunter's skills

  2. To promote safe, responsible and knowledgeable hunting

  3. To increase game populations

  4. To ensure hunters achieve perfect aim

The correct answer is: To promote safe, responsible and knowledgeable hunting

Hunter education serves primarily to promote safe, responsible and knowledgeable hunting practices. While improving skills and achieving perfect aim are certainly important aspects of hunting, the main goal of hunter education is to instill a deep understanding and respect for the sport, as well as to ensure hunters have the necessary knowledge and skills to hunt safely and ethically. Increasing game populations is also desirable, but it is not the main purpose of hunter education.
