hunting ground
Where predators stalk
A hunting ground is an area where animals are hunted, whether by humans or predators.
The phrase extends to any territory where someone seeks what they want: The singles bar was his favorite hunting ground.
A happy hunting ground is a place of plentiful opportunity—originally from Native American concepts of a paradise abundant with game.
