Question

which shot angle rarely results in a clean kill, ruins a lot of meat, and provides an animal the best opportunity to detect the hunter? a quartering - away b quartering - toward c broadside d head - on

Explanation:

Quartering - toward shot angle:

• Rarely results in a clean kill as it is difficult to hit vital organs accurately.
• Ruins a lot of meat due to the bullet's path through non - vital and less desirable parts.
• Provides the animal the best opportunity to detect the hunter as the hunter is more in the animal's line of sight and the animal's senses (sight, smell, hearing) are more likely to be triggered.

Broadside is a good shot angle for a clean kill as vital organs are more accessible. Quartering - away is better than quartering - toward in terms of kill probability and meat damage. Head - on is also not as bad as quartering - toward in terms of the given criteria.

Answer:

B. quartering - toward
