What should be done with leftover parts after field dressing?

  1. Leave them in the open for predators

  2. Bury them away from water sources

  3. Dispose of them in residential trash

  4. Leave them near campsites to deter animals

The correct answer is: Bury them away from water sources

While there may be many options to consider, the best option is to bury the leftover parts away from water sources. Leaving them in the open may attract predators to the area, which can be dangerous for both humans and wildlife. Disposing of the parts in residential trash can be seen as disrespectful to both the animal and to those living in the area. And leaving them near campsites can also attract animals and potentially create conflict between humans and wildlife. Burying them away from water sources helps to ensure that they are safely and respectfully disposed of, while also preventing any potential contamination of water sources.
