Big-game hunting
Big-game hunting is the hunting of large game for meat, other animal by-products (such as horn or bone), trophy or sport. The term is historically associated with the hunting of Africa's "Big Five" game (lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, leopard and rhinoceros), and with tigers and rhinoceroses on the Indian subcontinent. The numbers of white rhinoceros are considered too low to support hunting (a permit for hunting a black rhinoceros was issued in Namibia in 2014), but the other four species are still hunted in Africa, as well as other species such as kudu, antelope, and hartebeest. Moose, elk, bear, mountain lion, alligator and deer are the largest game hunted in North America, which is where most Big-game hunting is conducted today.
Big-game hunting is conducted in Africa, North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. In Africa, lion, Cape buffalo, elephant, giraffe and other large game animals are hunted. In North America, animals such as bear, alligator, moose, elk, boar, sheep and bison are hunted. In South America, deer and other species are hunted. In Europe, sheep, boar, goats, elk, deer, and other species are hunted. In Asia, several species of deer, bear, sheep and other species are hunted. In Australia, several species of deer and wild boar are hunted.
==History==
Hunting of big game for food is an ancient practice, dating back thousands of years. Based on cave paintings, it appears that early man hunted mammoth in groups, using a combination of spears or large rocks, or alternatively running the animal over a cliff.
