What is the primary objective of hunter education?

  1. To maximize hunting trophies

  2. To promote safe, responsible, knowledgeable and involved hunting

  3. To increase wildlife populations

  4. To support gun manufacturers

The correct answer is: To promote safe, responsible, knowledgeable and involved hunting

Hunter education courses are designed to teach hunters about responsible and safe hunting practices, as well as promote knowledge and involvement in hunting. While maximizing hunting trophies may be a goal for some hunters, it is not the primary objective of hunter education. Similarly, while supporting gun manufacturers and increasing wildlife populations may be incidental outcomes of hunter education, they are not the main purpose of these courses. Therefore, B is the best answer as it accurately reflects the primary objective of hunter education.
