hunt, field sports
獵 centers on the act of pursuing and capturing wild animals: hunting and field sports. Both meanings share the idea of actively chasing game.
獵 combines 犭 (dog/beast) with 巤, which likely contributes the sound and relates to hunting or capturing. The modern simplified form is 猟.
The left side 犭 suggests an animal or hunting dog, and the right side 巤 looks like a complex trap or net. Picture a hunting dog helping to drive game into a trap: 獵 means hunt.
For リョウ, imagine a hunter named Ryo who leads the hunt with his dog: Ryo -> リョウ, and he is an expert at field sports.
