In terms of hunting ethics, what is one of the main reasons for making a clean, quick kill?

  1. To avoid damaging the meat

  2. To increase sport

  3. To prevent the animal from suffering

  4. To save ammunition

The correct answer is: To prevent the animal from suffering

One of the main reasons for making a clean, quick kill is to prevent the animal from suffering. This is an important aspect of hunting ethics as it shows respect and consideration for the animal being hunted. While option A may also be a reason, it is not the main reason and does not prioritize the well-being of the animal. Option B, increasing sport, goes against ethical hunting practices and does not consider the animal's experience. Option D, saving ammunition, is not a valid reason for making a clean, quick kill as it values the cost of ammunition over the life and suffering of the animal.
