OBJECTIVE FORESTRY

Detailed explanation-1: -Generally speaking, animals such as upland birds (pheasants, quail, grouse, turkeys), waterfowl (geese, ducks), upland game (rabbits, squirrels), and furbearers (raccoons, coyotes) are considered small game. Most states consider all legally “huntable” animals that weigh less than 40 pounds to be small game.

Detailed explanation-2: -The origin of calling wild animals “game” in English apparently goes back to when hunting was considered a game by the nobility. They go out and hunt for trophy, like a stag with the largest antlers or so, and the one who hunted the biggest one won the hunt, or the game in this case.

Detailed explanation-3: -Deer are the ruminant mammals forming the family Cervidae. Species in the family include white-tailed deer, mule deer such as black-tailed deer, elk, moose, red deer, caribou, fallow deer, roe deer, pudú and chital.
