What is 'bag limit' in hunting terms?

The maximum weight of gear you can carry
The amount of game you can eat in a day
The total number of specific game animals that a hunter can harvest in a given time
The size of the bag you are allowed to bring hunting

The correct answer is: The total number of specific game animals that a hunter can harvest in a given time

The term 'bag limit' refers to the total number of specific game animals that a hunter is legally allowed to harvest within a defined timeframe, which is typically a day or a specific hunting season. This regulation is established to help manage wildlife populations and ensure sustainable hunting practices. By setting bag limits, wildlife agencies aim to prevent overharvesting, which can lead to population decline and ecological imbalance. Understanding and adhering to bag limits is essential for responsible hunting and conservation efforts.
