Hunting is the practice of killing or trapping animals, or pursuing or tracking them with the intent of doing so.

Hunting wildlife or feral animals is most commonly done by humans for food, recreation, to remove predators that are dangerous to humans or domestic animals, or for trade.

Lawful hunting is distinguished from poaching, which is the illegal killing, trapping or capture of the hunted species.

The species that are hunted are referred to as game or prey and are usually mammals and birds.

A ranch is an area of land, including various structures, given primarily to the practice of ranching, the practice of raising grazing livestock such as cattle or sheep for meat or wool.

The word most often applies to livestock-raising operations in Mexico, the Western United States and Canada, though there are ranches in other areas.

People who own or operate a ranch are called ranchers, cattlemen, or stockgrowers.

Ranching is also a method used to raise less common livestock such as elk, American bison or even ostrich, emu, and alpaca.

A farm is an area of land that is devoted primarily to agricultural processes with the primary objective of producing food and other crops; it is the basic facility in food production.

The name is used for specialised units such as arable farms, vegetable farms, fruit farms, dairy, pig and poultry farms, and land used for the production of natural fibres, biofuel and other commodities.

It includes ranches, feedlots, orchards, plantations and estates, smallholdings and hobby farms, and includes the farmhouse and agricultural buildings as well as the land.

In modern times the term has been extended so as to include such industrial operations as wind farms and fish farms, both of which can operate on land or sea.
