hunting reserve

Licensed shooting grounds

A hunting reserve is a tract of land set aside for hunting, typically with managed wildlife populations and controlled access.

Such reserves may be privately owned estates or government-designated areas where hunting is permitted under specific regulations.

The prince maintained a hunting reserve stocked with deer and pheasant.

The term often implies exclusivity—land preserved for sport rather than conservation.
