A canned hunt is a trophy hunt which is not "fair chase" ; it has been made too easy for the hunter. In some examples, animals have been kept in a confined area , such as in a fenced-in area, increasing the likelihood of the hunter obtaining a kill. The term has been used for driven grouse shooting, in which large areas of Britain are farmed for red grouse.Rebirding: Rewilding Britain and its birds. Benedict Macdonald, 2019, Pelagic Publishing. p. 171. According to WordNet, a canned hunt is a "hunt for animals that have been raised on game ranches until they are mature enough to be killed for trophy collections."
