Human foraging societies

Human foraging societies are communities that rely primarily on hunting, gathering wild plants, and fishing for their food, rather than agriculture or domesticated animals. These societies are usually small, mobile, and organize their activities around natural resource availability. They tend to have a deep understanding of their environment, with social structures that promote sharing and cooperation. Such societies existed for thousands of years and are still present in some regions today. Their way of life emphasizes sustainability, resource management, and a close relationship with nature, reflecting adaptations to the local ecosystem and climate.
