Game in Europe

Definition of Game

Wild animals, the hunting or taking of which is a sport. In the Game Laws, game consists of hares, pheasants, partridges, grouse, heath or moor game, black-game and bustards.
The right to kill game upon any land is vested in the occupier, unless he holds it under a lease or agreement by which the right is reserved to the landlord. But every person killing or taking game with the exception of Ground Game (which includes hares and rabbits), is required to take out a yearly excise licence.
Poaching, the unlawful taking of game, is an offence punishable with fine and imprisonment, and if with arms, penal servitude
