What should you do if you become lost while hunting?

Keep moving until you find your way
Wait for someone to find you
Stay in one place and make yourself visible
Try to find your way out at night

The correct answer is: Stay in one place and make yourself visible

If you become lost while hunting, the best course of action is to stay in one place and make yourself visible. By staying put, you increase the chances of rescuers finding you more quickly, as you won't be moving around and potentially making it harder for them to locate you. This also helps to prevent you from getting even more lost or injured while trying to find your way out. Making yourself visible by wearing bright colors, using a signal mirror, or creating a signal fire can further aid in your rescue. Remember, staying calm and taking proactive steps to attract attention to your location is key when finding yourself lost in the woods.
