What should you do if you become lost while hunting?

  1. Start running in any direction

  2. Wait for someone to notice you are missing

  3. Stay calm, stay put, and signal for help

  4. Try to catch a wild animal for food

The correct answer is: Stay calm, stay put, and signal for help

If you become lost while hunting, the best course of action is to stay calm, stay put, and signal for help. Moving around when lost can make it harder for rescuers to locate you. By staying in one place, you improve the chances of being found quickly. Signaling for help by using a whistle, mirror, or by making noise can also help searchers locate you. Avoid panicking and making sudden movements, as these can decrease your chances of being successfully rescued.
