  Hunting
     mentioned first in Gen. 10:9 in connection with Nimrod. Esau was
     "a cunning hunter" (Gen. 25:27). Hunting was practised by the
     Hebrews after their settlement in the "Land of Promise" (Lev.
     17:15; Prov. 12:27). The lion and other ravenous beasts were
     found in Palestine (1 Sam. 17:34; 2 Sam. 23:20; 1 Kings 13:24;
     Ezek. 19:3-8), and it must have been necessary to hunt and
     destroy them. Various snares and gins were used in hunting (Ps.
     91:3; Amos 3:5; 2 Sam. 23:20).
     
       War is referred to under the idea of hunting (Jer. 16:16;
     Ezek. 32:30).

  HUNTING. The act of pursuing and taking wild animals; the chase.
       2. The chase gives a kind of title by occupancy, by which the hunter 
  acquires a right or property in the game which he captures. In the United 
  States, the right of hunting is universal, and limited only so far as to 
  exclude hunters from committing injuries to private property or to the 
  public; as, by shooting on public roads. Vide Feroe naturae; Occupancy.
