What is true about bagged quarry?

In the context of falconry, bagged quarry refers to animals that have been captured and are used for training birds of prey. While there is a common belief that bagged game is essential for training hawks, particularly in specific scenarios, this isn't entirely accurate.

When training a new Red-tailed hawk, it's not strictly necessary to use bagged quarry; rather, many practitioners rely on methods that encourage the birds to develop their hunting instincts naturally. This is especially true for teaching eyasses (young hawks), which can learn from the environment and their innate abilities rather than only through bagged animals.

Additionally, using bagged quarry extensively may not be the most effective method for training long-winged falcons, as they can often be trained using other techniques that better mimic natural hunting situations.

Overall, since statements A, B, and C make claims about the necessity of bagged quarry that aren't universally applicable or validated by experienced falconers, stating that "none of the above" is accurate reflects a deeper understanding of the flexibility and variety in training methods within falconry.
