Hunting is the practice of tracking and killing wildlife for various purposes, such as the collection of meat or skins.
The Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton hunted animals similarly to assassination targets, tracking and trapping several kinds that he encountered across the Frontier.[1]
Though animals could be hunted in a variety of ways, the quality of the kill affected the price one could fetch for the skin. For an animal killed with a single strike from a bow or blade, the skin had a higher economic value, since bullets from a firearm would damage the pelt.[2]
Hunting won’t be as simple as seeing an animal and shooting it. There are several types of animals to the wilderness. Some smaller prey like deer and rabbits will be common, but the trophy animals like elk, moose, and bears will be more difficult to locate.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
