Hunting is the practice of pursuing wildlife for food, recreation, or for trade. In present-day use, the term refers to lawful hunting, as distinguished from poaching, which is the killing, trapping or capture of the hunted species contrary to applicable law. Hunting advocates state that hunting can be a necessary component of modern wildlife management. In the United States, wildlife managers are frequently part of hunting regulatory and licensing bodies, where they help to set rules on the number, manner and conditions in which game may be hunted.

This section is an overview of some of the more common types of game, and are usually mammals and migratory or non-migratory gamebirds.
