Cabela's Big Game Hunter: Pro Hunts is a 2014 hunting simulation video game developed by Cauldron and published by Activision for the Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Wii U, and Xbox 360. [2] It is the final entry in Cabela's Big Game Hunter series and any Cabela's licensed game published by Activision.
The game takes the player on a single-player campaign in North America [3] with four experts from the competitive real world of big-game hunting. Providing advice throughout the game are Wade Middleton, Jim Shockey, and Ralph and Vicki Cianciarulo. [4]
The player has to complete objectives such as hunting an animal with various weapons (rifles, bow, shotgun) in order to progress in the campaign. The player has access to four different hunting areas, all in North America which is divided into the Southeast, Northeast, Southwest and Northwest. Different areas have different animals which can be hunted. Some animals, such as moose, bears, and boars, will charge if surprised, angered, startled, or threatened.
Special animals which can be regarded as game bosses have to be hunted also in a special way to unlock the next hunting area. The game bosses are:
Southeast
Northeast
Southwest
Northwest
Game or quarry is any wild animal hunted for animal products, for recreation ("sporting"), or for trophies. The species of animals hunted as game varies in different parts of the world and by different local jurisdictions, though most are terrestrial mammals and birds. Fish caught non-commercially are also referred to as game fish.
