Which of the following safety rules should always be followed while hunting?

  1. Always point the muzzle in a safe direction

  2. It's acceptable to cross a fence while holding a loaded gun

  3. Identification of the target is optional

  4. Use of alcohol is permissible after shooting

The correct answer is: Always point the muzzle in a safe direction

While hunting, it is essential to prioritize safety at all times. Option A is the only correct answer as always pointing the muzzle in a safe direction is crucial in preventing accidents and unintentional shootings. Option B, on the other hand, is a dangerous practice as crossing a fence while holding a loaded gun can lead to accidental discharge and serious injuries. Option C is also incorrect as proper identification of the target is necessary before taking any shots to avoid harming other hunters or animals. Finally, Option D is highly dangerous as the use of alcohol impairs judgment and coordination, putting everyone in the hunting party at risk.
