Hazrat Abu Qatadah (Radhiallahu anhu) reported that he once hunted a wild donkey. Some Sahabah ate from it, while others refused. When this was mentioned to the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam), he said that it is edible and Allah has made it halal. (Bukhari: 1821)

From this hadith, Islamic scholars (fuqaha) have stated that hunting wild animals such as wild donkeys, wild cows, and deer is permissible. The meat of these wild animals is halal to eat.
