 Big-game hunting

Big-game hunting is the hunting of large game animals for meat, commercially valuable by-products (such as horns, furs, tusks, bones, body fat/oil, or special organs and contents), trophy, taxodermy, or simply just for recreation ("sporting").The term is often associated with the hunting of Africa's "Big Five" game (lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, African leopard and rhinoceros), and with tigers and rhinoceroses on the Indian subcontinent.
