Which of the following best describes 'field care' of game?

Cleaning and cooling the animal as quickly as possible
Hanging the game for aging
Cooking the game to the proper temperature
Decorating the game for photos

The correct answer is: Cleaning and cooling the animal as quickly as possible

Field care of game refers to the immediate steps taken after hunting and killing an animal to preserve its quality for consumption. This includes cleaning the animal and cooling it as quickly as possible to prevent spoilage and bacteria growth. Hanging the game for aging may be a common practice, but it is not considered field care as it is not an immediate step. Cooking the game to the proper temperature and decorating it for photos also do not fall under field care as they occur much later in the process.
