stopped: "To give (something) up" is a phrasal verb which has a few different meanings. In this case it means "to abandon", "to cease" or "to abstain from" bear hunting. In another context, "to give up" means "to surrender" or "capitulate" as in the sentence: "the enemy was too strong, and so we gave up without a fight".
cut down on: To "cut down" means to "diminish" or "reduce", as in the sentence "Polly has decided to cut down on coffee in the morning because it makes her nervous". This is not what Susie is asking Harold to do.
campaigned against: Susie is not asking Harold to "campaign against" bear hunting, but to "stop" bear hunting, or at least tell the press that he has stopped bear hunting.
reconsidered his views on: This is not what Susie is asking Harold to do. The phrasal verb "to give up" does not mean to "reconsider" or "rethink".
