"Roebuck-hunting with greyhound and running hounds", 15th century manuscripts from The Hunting Book of Gaston Phebus

Hunting is the human practice of seeking, pursuing, capturing, or killing wildlife or feral animals. The most common reasons for humans to hunt are to harvest food (such as meat), as well as useful animal products (fur, hide, bone, tusks, horn, antler, etc.) or to eliminate pests and nuisance animals that damage crops or livestock or spread diseases, among other reasons.

Preparation

Hunting will largely depend on the region where you live it, and as such, you need to do significant research before starting. One of the first things is deciding on your preferred game, the kind of animal to be hunted: small game, including rabbits, squirrels, pheasants, crows, waterfowls, among others, or big game, like deers, sheep, moose, antelopes, bears, bighorn sheeps, mountain goats, among others. Research includes the hunting weapon of choice, including the bow and arrow, a shotgun, or a rifle, as well as talking with hunting experience, including relatives and and local sporting goods store workers.[1]
