You can easily accumulate lots of Large Monster Investigations through the following: collecting their tracks, breaking parts, and by either slaying or capturing them.
It should be noted that Large Monsters in Low Rank locales will only be Low Rank Monsters as well, and will therefore produce Low Rank Investigations. The same goes for High Rank monsters.
Small Monsters, unlike Large Monsters, do not have tracks you can pick up. To get investigations for Small Monsters, simply hunt some down until the Investigation added! notification pops up.
Take note that, like Large Monsters, your locale's current rank will also generate Investigations of the same rank.
