Hunting
Hunting is one of the most popular outdoor activities throughout the world. It has become more of a form of recreation than a means of sustenance in recent years. Today's hunters may enlist the aid of animal guides and technologically advanced equipment to find their desired prey. Shotguns are typically used for hunting small game or birds and rifles are used for larger prey. Other forms of hunting include the utilization of traps, spears, blowguns, boomerangs, bows and arrows, and animals that are trained to find and kill quarry.
