What action should a hunter take after making a harvest?

Leave the field immediately
Field dress the game
Take photographs only
Notify the local game warden

The correct answer is: Field dress the game

After making a harvest, the hunter should take the time to properly field dress the game in order to remove any organs or parts that may be contaminated and to preserve the meat. Leaving the field immediately (A) does not allow for this important step to be completed. Taking photographs only (C) may be a personal preference but does not address the necessary actions to take after a harvest. Notifying a local game warden (D) may be required by law, but it is not the immediate action a hunter should take after making a harvest. Field dressing the game, on the other hand, is a necessary step to ensure the safety and quality of the meat.
