What is the main reason for practicing 'fair chase' in hunting?

To ensure game animals have a reasonable chance to escape
To make hunting more challenging
To comply with game laws
To limit the types of weapons used

The correct answer is: To ensure game animals have a reasonable chance to escape

Fair chase is a principle that emphasizes ethical and humane hunting practices. The main reason for practicing fair chase is to ensure that game animals have a reasonable chance to escape, promoting a fair and balanced relationship between humans and the natural environment. Options B and D are incorrect because they focus on the personal motivations and restrictions of the hunter, rather than the well-being of the hunted animal. While option C may be a result of fair chase, it is not the main reason for its practice.
