What is the hunter's role in wildlife conservation?

  1. To eliminate as many game animals as possible

  2. To help control wildlife populations and fund conservation efforts

  3. To introduce non-native species for hunting

  4. To focus solely on trophy game

The correct answer is: To help control wildlife populations and fund conservation efforts

The hunter's role in wildlife conservation is to help control wildlife populations and fund conservation efforts. Eliminating as many game animals as possible (option A) may actually disrupt the ecosystem and lead to imbalances. Introducing non-native species (option C) can also have adverse effects on native species. Focusing solely on trophy game (option D) can lead to unsustainable hunting practices. Therefore, option B is the most suitable answer as it encompasses all aspects of responsible hunting for conservation purposes.
