What is the primary objective of hunter education?

  1. To promote recreational hunting

  2. To teach survival skills

  3. To ensure the safety of hunters and non-hunters

  4. To increase game populations

The correct answer is: To ensure the safety of hunters and non-hunters

Hunter education serves the primary purpose of ensuring the safety of both hunters and non-hunters by teaching responsible and ethical hunting practices. While promoting recreational hunting and teaching survival skills may be secondary objectives, they are not the primary objective of hunter education. Additionally, increasing game populations is not within the scope of hunter education and is primarily the responsibility of wildlife management agencies.
