Big game hunting is the hunting of large game. The term is historically associated with the hunting of Africa's Big Five game (lion, the African elephant, the Cape Buffalo, the leopard and the rhinoceros), and with tigers and rhinos on the Indian subcontinent. In North America, animals such as bears and bison were hunted. Most of these species are protected now, but other species such as kudu, antelope, hartebeest, moose, elk, and deer are still hunted. Big game hunting occurs in places such as Argentina, New Zealand, Canada, many parts of the USA, and in many parts of Africa.
