Ethical hunting behavior a part of sporting heritage

Hunters must agree to treat the outdoors, the activities they are participants in, and each other with respect. The future of hunting belongs to those who are willing to accept full responsibility for their actions. Sportsmen and sportswomen accept responsibility not only for their actions, but also for perpetuating wildlife and maintaining a high caliber of sportsmanship. Photograph was taken in 1908 in Dillon County, SC of a young Charles Baxley returning from a successful rabbit hunt. (Photo courtesy Library of Congress)
