What should you do if you become lost while hunting?

  1. Keep moving and try to find your way out

  2. Stay put and wait for help

  3. Make noise to scare away wildlife

  4. Try to find food and water immediately

The correct answer is: Stay put and wait for help

If you become lost while hunting, the safest option is to stay put and wait for help. This is because moving around can further disorient you and make it harder for rescuers to find you. Making noise may not be the best idea, as it could potentially scare away any search parties that may be looking for you. Trying to find food and water should not be a priority, as survival will depend on being found and rescued rather than sustaining yourself in the short term.
