Back to early human talk - Neanderthals hunted mega-fauna without projectile weapons. There's a whole bunch of skeletons found with the kinds of injuries you'd expect to see on a rodeo clown and more often than not they survived them.

"hunting" by sitting on your rear end for hours and then shooting at something is the gayest form of hunting

i mean if thats your poo poo then enjoy it but dont pretend theres anything cool or manly about it

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayoreo_people#People_in_contact

quote:

Ayoreo people in contact are struggling with poverty and discrimination, especially in the cities.[6][8] There are few jobs, so people often work as day laborers in construction or gardening.[6][8][14] Youth have few opportunities, so there is a desire for scholarships in hopes education will allow them to escape the current poverty.[6][14] Members sometimes turn to begging or prostitution in order to survive.[8][18] Ayoreo prostitutes are at a high risk for HIV, and they sometimes hide their condition and do not seek treatment in order to avoid discrimination from their community.[18] The Ayoreo tend to live in settlements together, such as the Degüi Community in Santa Cruz.[6][8] However, the settlements tend to be slums with poor conditions, such as houses made of mud and cane.[6][8] Discrimination is especially prevalent in the healthcare system, where Ayoreo people have to wait for extended periods of time to be seen, which can lead them to avoid seeking treatment.[8][18] In 2010, a group of Ayoreo-Atetadiegosode people in contact decided to return to their ancestral land to live a traditional lifestyle, and other groups may follow.[6]

They moved to the city and couldn't find good work or any decent medical treatment. So they became whores and then they decided to move to woods because gently caress modern society.

to hunt it he has to literally get into that animals head, to think like it. more than once he lost the tracks and had to go into a weird kind of trance where he simulated the things mind to figure out where it ran. of course you are going to have respect for the animal that you had to become in order to kill. that video was amazing to watch

Early humans crossed the Bering Strait and found a pristine wilderness filled with giant lions, sabre toothed cats and short faced bears. They stayed. Some of them got this crazy idea like "Hey what if instead of hunting buffalo individually we just drive this whole herd off a cliff?" So they did that.

This.

Everyone has this image of humans going out as a hunting party to basically fight a loving 10-ton Columbian Mammoth with spears and poo poo. The truth is, even 30 thousand years ago, early humans were generally smart enough to say, gently caress that, and instead did things like scare a group of mammoths into stampeding off a cliff and then just eating whatever they could manage.

yeah but even a medieval farmer worked way less than a modern human. im pretty sure the industrial revolution has been the worst for humanity in terms of labor required to survive

what did they do with all their free time anyways? gently caress and raise children?

I think these pictures were either proven to be a hoax, or were actually taken in the Indian Ocean, where there is an island inhabited by extremely aggressive tribal people - aggressive to such a degree that the government formally owning the island has forbidden anybody from setting foot in there.

I don't think it was a hoax, I think it was just reported stupidly by the press. Something about how they weren't unknown, but were still uncontacted by the strict definition of the word.
