Raise crops and chickens
They hunted them however they could.
>.t what are arrows, spears, atlatls, slingshots, snares, pit traps, nets, or just hucking a plain old rock with your arm
how could that be true in europe where it was wooded.
>our ancestors
OP is talking about all of humanity's ancestors who lived in Africa.
so lets hear your method of hunting a dangerous animal when you're armed with a sharp stick
>when you're armed with a sharp stick
Fukken stick it! Pyaww!!
Literally how stupid are people to not read a bear encounter with a meager knife or rifle
It's not that simple either, against a predator like that you might have to sacrifice a hand in it's maw to get clean repetitive stabs to the chest, anything that will break it's ribcage and puncture something quickly
decaprio got one without sacrificing anything
Just warning for future bear encounters
Always be ready
>hunting a dangerous animal
Why? I like rabbit.
prehistoric rabbits were 10 feet tall and would eat your face off
Persistence hunting is a myth. The calories used and need to drag the animal back to camp makes it pointless. It's a ritual right of passage for certain ancient tribes, but that's about it.
Cliffs. Herd animals are easily scared off cliffs.

why would you assume they dragged them back to camp?
>Persistence hunting is a myth
Guess how I know you're a 115-IQ subhuman who reads pop-science tabloids.
>above average IQ
>subhuman
say it one more time for the folks in the back please
you camp at the animal for a week. eat everything except the really fatty parts and carry those with you. EZPZ
Why are humans so uniquely unequipped to deal with the natural world?
We are the tarded extraterrestrials that were marooned here on purpose.
Humans are uniquely equipped to deal with the natural world better than anything else that ever lived.
Aside from our gigabrains?
As was previously mentioned, we are the best endurance runners of all species
Also we can throw stuff really good (even chimpanzees struggle with that)
Not to mention walking upright (superior awareness and free hands) and opposable thumbs
There are drawbacks of course (back problems, problems with childbirth, children are born defensless because their head needs to grow etc)
But we beat ants in our share of terrafoming, and ants are a tough opponent to beat in that regard.
Only bacteria surpass us as far as I know.
>unchallenged global apex predator
>"uniquely unequipped to deal with the natural world"
u wot m8?
People do that, like, right now.
Explains a lot about our developed societies t bee haych
>animals are good sprinters but bad endurance
>yet people rode horses and camels
If we ran better, we ate it. If it ran better, we rode it.
>If we ran better, we ate it. If it ran better, we rode it.
Need to do that with women. Might lower the obesity pandemic.
You ommit the fact that humans build infrastructure to mitigate their lower stamina.
It's a trope for all literature before the train age that they had stables every x km of the road and changed horses if they needed to move as fast as possible.
Alternatively step tribes had 4-6 horses per warrior so they just changed them like that.
>our ancestors were self replicating molecules and now we (conscious in a brain) exist in a hallucinated virtual reality constructed purely for the purpose of serving our self replicating molecule ancestors and making more of them
huh
wow Atheists think they're smart but their entire philosophy can be summed up in one sentence.
Isn't that a good thing?
Forgot to add my name to these two
thats how i hunt females
Only a few tribes in Africa did that. European hunters used blinds and forced their prey into traps.
>500 years from now
“Our ancestors had factory farms, squishing thousands of scentient creatures into body sized cages, feeding them onions and steroids”
“Bro, you really believe that? Lmao”
>humans breed animals for the sole purpose of experimenting on them and/or killing them
Just imagine this being your fate from birth
Try Soviet union or Sparta for human experiment material
It's the song about Russian civil war of 1918 sung by a chorus of pioneers (children about 12 yo) in 1960s or even 80s where they say stuf like:
"We are all unbridled heroes and all our life is a struggle"
"In intoxicating battle give us Warshaw, give us Berlin and then we smashed into Crimea"
Songs and other stuff like this was a part of people's lives since kindergarten.
