Why is the hunting season generally in the fall?

  1. To coincide with tourism season

  2. Because days are cool, helping preserve meat

  3. In response to hunting traditions

  4. To allow for annual tree planting

The correct answer is: Because days are cool, helping preserve meat

The hunting season is generally in the fall because days are cooler during this time, which helps preserve the meat of the harvested animals. Cooler temperatures slow down the growth of bacteria, aiding in the preservation of the meat for consumption. This is an important factor to consider to ensure the quality and safety of the meat obtained during the hunting season.
