What does it mean to 'Tag' your game?

  1. To physically mark the animal before hunting

  2. To immediately record the kill in your hunting journal

  3. To attach your license tag to the game as required by law

  4. Hunting in restricted areas

The correct answer is: To attach your license tag to the game as required by law

The concept of "tagging" your game refers to the legal requirement of attaching your license tag to the harvested animal. This process serves multiple purposes: it helps to regulate the hunting population by ensuring compliance with regulations, provides a way for authorities to track the number of animals harvested, and ensures that hunters adhere to designated limits and seasons. By attaching the license tag, hunters are essentially documenting that they have the legal right to hunt that specific animal within the regulations set forth by wildlife management authorities. This practice helps ensure sustainable hunting practices and contributes to wildlife conservation efforts.
