Which of the following actions contributes to ethical hunting?

  1. Taking 'trophy' pictures with the game

  2. Respecting others' property and land

  3. Hunting only exotic species

  4. Using technology to track game

The correct answer is: Respecting others' property and land

Respecting others' property and land is the only option that contributes to ethical hunting. Taking 'trophy' pictures can glorify the act of killing and can be seen as disrespectful to the animal and its life. Hunting only exotic species can lead to overhunting and disrupting the natural balance of ecosystems. Using technology to track game can give hunters an unfair advantage and can lead to more kills than necessary. Therefore, respecting others' property and land is the only action that aligns with the ethical principles of hunting.
