Wondering if any one can tell me what is the most popular hunted big game species over there and which is the best states to find them. Iam very interested in finding out as much information as possible . Hopefully with the right direction from you guys iam looking to try and arrange a hunting trip over there. Many thanks for your advise.
Welcome from across the big pond. White tail deer are the #1 hunted big game animal in North America. I don't know the stats on the rest but I would suspect that elk would be second followed a close second by antelope and mule deer close in there would be wild turkey, bear, moose and caribou.

Is it a costly sport hunting elk and antelope? Ive noticed a few guys on this forum talking about hunting bears. Which parts of america has the largest bear population
well for bear population the north west probably has the biggest population of bear, but There are bear in most of the states that touch Canada. But then again Alaska might have more bear than northwestern 48 states.

Plenty of bears in NY.
Got the Adirondacks, they love it there.
I heard the lions, or something of that type of cat, are coming from PA up to NY.
Overall-Whitetail Deer
Depends on where you hunt, the animal varies.
But above I mentioned a few of the main ones.
Down south you can hunt wild hogs if you wish.
black bears are common throughout North america, some states allow their harvest, some don't. the big bears are out West . Alaska has lots of both. over all in the U.S, I would say that white tail deer is the most hunted big game animal

White tail deer are abundant here in New York. Black bear in the Adirondacks and in the Southern Tier. We have some moose but there is no season on them, strictly off-limits. Alot of small game and plenty of waterfowl...
In North America, Bear, Elk, and Moose are big game, deer are not.
That depends on what part of the country you're in. Around here deer are big game. Actually the biggest natural game animal since bears aren't legal and Elk are imported and only found on private game preserves. They get to be a pretty good size too.

In CO and MT I have shot mule deer which were bigger than cow elk!!
I shot a 12 pt white tail just north of the USAF Academy which was bigger than a spike elk. It is the biggest deer I ever took!!!
