How should hunters treat every firearm?

As if it is loaded
With gloves for safety
As if it is unloaded
Carelessly if they are experienced

The correct answer is: As if it is loaded

Hunters should treat every firearm as if it is loaded to ensure the highest level of safety. This mindset helps prevent accidents and mishandling of firearms. By always treating a firearm as if it is loaded, hunters are more likely to practice proper firearm safety, such as keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, keeping their finger off the trigger until ready to shoot, and being aware of their target and what is beyond it. This approach helps instill a habit of caution and responsibility when handling firearms, reducing the risk of incidents.
