The correct answer is: To teach hunting skills and improve safety and ethics in the field

The purpose of hunter education programs, as stated in choice C, is to teach hunting skills and improve safety and ethics in the field. Hunter education courses are designed to provide hunters with the knowledge and skills they need to hunt safely and ethically. These programs cover a wide range of topics including firearm safety, wildlife conservation, hunting laws and regulations, and hunting ethics. By educating hunters on these important aspects, the goal is to reduce hunting accidents and promote responsible hunting practices. While promoting the sport of hunting may be a byproduct of these programs, the primary focus is on safety, ethics, and skill development.
