Which of the following would be an example of the actions of an Ethical hunter?

Displaying a harvested game animal in an easily visible area
Offering to sell part of the harvested game to the land owners
Always taking a land owners wishes into account
Waiting several hours before field dressing a harvested animal

The correct answer is: Always taking a land owners wishes into account

Ethical hunters always take a land owner's wishes into account in order to maintain proper respect for the land and its owner. Displaying a harvested animal in an easily visible area (choice A) may be seen as bragging or showing off, which goes against the code of ethics for hunting. Offering to sell part of the harvested game to the land owners (choice B) could be seen as crossing boundaries and taking advantage of the land owners. Waiting several hours before field dressing a harvested animal (choice D) is not necessarily an ethical decision as it could lead to waste of the meat and potential contamination. Being considerate and respectful of the land and its owner's wishes (choice C) is the most ethical action for a hunter to take.
