Which of the following is a good practice when following a blood trail?

  1. Waiting 30 minutes before following

  2. Marking the trail as you go

  3. Running to catch up with the game

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: Marking the trail as you go

Marking the trail as you go is a good practice when following a blood trail because it helps you keep track of the direction the animal is moving, making it easier to follow the trail and increasing the chances of a successful recovery. Waiting 30 minutes before following allows the animal time to settle down and decrease the likelihood of pushing it further away. Running to catch up with the game is not advisable as it can cause the animal to run further and become more difficult to track. Therefore, choosing "Marking the trail as you go" as the correct answer reinforces the importance of this practice for effective tracking and recovery.
