What is the first step in field dressing a deer?

  1. Removing the entrails

  2. Cutting off the antlers

  3. Tagging the deer

  4. Skinning the deer

The correct answer is: Removing the entrails

The first step in field dressing a deer is to remove the entrails. This is important because it prevents bacteria from entering the meat and spoiling it. Cutting off the antlers and tagging the deer can come later in the process and are not necessary for properly field dressing a deer. Skinning the deer also comes after removing the entrails. Therefore, option A is the best choice as it is the first step in the process.
