The correct answer is: A tag that allows you to legally store and transport harvested game

A game tag serves as a legal document that permits an individual to store and transport harvested game. It is crucial for ensuring that hunters are compliant with local wildlife regulations and conservation efforts. By using a game tag, hunters can demonstrate proper handling of their harvest, including when and where the animal was taken. This also helps wildlife management authorities monitor game populations and enforce regulations effectively. The use of game tags plays a significant role in sustainable hunting practices, promoting responsibility among hunters and aiding in the preservation of wildlife resources.
