Georgia Hunter Education Course Practice Exam

If a hunter gets lost, the first thing they should do is stay put and make themselves visible. This is the best course of action because moving around when lost can make it harder for search parties to find them. By staying put and making themselves visible, such as by creating a signal fire, or using a whistle or mirror to attract attention, the chances of being located by search and rescue teams are significantly higher. It is important for hunters to prioritize their safety and increasing the likelihood of being found when lost in the wilderness.
