Question

when should a hunter wear a fall - arrest system?
a when the hunter is hauling a firearm into the stand
b when the hunter wants to take a nap in the stand
c whenever the hunter is off the ground
d when the hunter is about to shoot

Explanation:

A fall - arrest system is a safety device used to prevent falls. Hunters should wear it whenever they are off the ground (such as in a tree stand) to protect against potential falls. Hauling a firearm (A) or shooting (D) are not the main times for fall - arrest system use. Taking a nap (B) is not a specific activity that dictates fall - arrest system use. The key is the elevation (being off the ground).

Answer:

C. whenever the hunter is off the ground
