Which of the following should you do to prepare for a hunting trip?

Tell someone your plan and expected return time
Bring only the ammunition you need for the day
Avoid wearing safety gear to increase mobility
Focus only on the game you plan to hunt

The correct answer is: Tell someone your plan and expected return time

Telling someone your plan and expected return time before heading out on a hunting trip is crucial for safety reasons. This step ensures that someone is aware of your whereabouts and when to raise the alarm if you do not return when expected. It also assists in locating you in case of an emergency. Therefore, choice A is the correct answer. Options B, C, and D are not recommended for preparing for a hunting trip. Bringing only the ammunition you need for the day (option B) may leave you ill-prepared in case of unforeseen circumstances where extra ammunition might be required. Avoiding wearing safety gear to increase mobility (option C) is unsafe and goes against proper hunting practices that prioritize safety. Focusing only on the game you plan to hunt (option D) neglects the need for overall preparedness and awareness in a hunting environment.
