In Africa, wild animals hunted for their meat are called bush meat; see that article for more detailed information on how this operates within the economy (for personal consumption and for money) and the law (including overexploitation and illegal imports).

Animals hunted include, but are not limited to:

Various species of antelope

Cape buffalo

Wildebeest

Zebra

Elephant

Duiker

Kudu

Rhinoceros

Lion

Gemsbok

Hyena

Impala

Jackal

Some of these animals are endangered or otherwise protected, and thus it is illegal to hunt them.

In Africa, animals hunted for their pelts or ivory are sometimes referred to as big game.
