What does 'ethical hunting' mean?

Shooting as many animals as possible
Following laws and hunting regulations
Using only traditional weapons
Hunting without a license to avoid fees

The correct answer is: Following laws and hunting regulations

'Ethical hunting' means following laws and hunting regulations in order to preserve the balance of the ecosystem and ensure the sustainability of wildlife populations. This includes obtaining the necessary permits and licenses, obeying hunting seasons and bag limits, and using ethical and humane hunting methods. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they all involve unethical or illegal practices that can harm animal populations and disrupt the balance of the ecosystem. Shooting as many animals as possible can lead to overhunting and depletion of species, using only traditional weapons limits the effectiveness and accuracy of hunting, and hunting without a license is illegal and can result in fines or other legal consequences.
