Answer: (B)

Hunter education focuses on safe, ethical hunting and the responsibilities that come with it. It covers safe firearm handling, how to recognize game and read wildlife signs, the laws and regulations that govern hunting, and the ethics and conservation principles that protect wildlife and habitats. The topics listed—firearm safety, wildlife identification, laws and regulations, ethics, and conservation—align with these essential areas of hunting education. Other options point to fishing techniques, cooking or boat safety, or vehicle maintenance, which aren’t part of the standard hunter education curriculum.
