Following on from the extinct animals thread. If you could travel anywhere and any time, what would your big 5 be? They don't have to have existed in the same period. Just existed at some point.
 
Cats. I would love to hunt tiger, Indian, Russian, Indonesian; black mane lion in Kenya, a Barbary lion; and rounded out with a 120 + elephant. I would really enjoy those hunts.
 
100 pounder would do the trick, up close and frontal.
 
Well if you can go to anytime and want a 100-120lb tusk elephant, how about a 200-300lb tusk mammoth? Cave lion twice the size of current lions, 2000+lb cave bear, megaceros with a 12 FOOT antler spread, ancient croc 30+ ft

That'll be a bitch to get mounted, but it'd look good once done.
 
Mastadon, Irish Elk, sabre tooth tiger, auroch. Only big 4 but acn't think of a 5th at the moment. All done with a classic english (probably H&H) double in 450 NE.
 
A large elephant - those 150 lb class tusks. Nothing else much interests me but that.
 
I'll just go with the Big 5 of today. They got that name for a reason.
