Traditional Hunting and Gathering

Traditional hunting and gathering is a way of life where people obtain food directly from nature. They hunt animals, fish, and collect plants, fruits, nuts, and seeds for sustenance. This lifestyle relies on understanding local ecosystems, timing, and seasonal patterns. It was common among ancient societies and still persists among some indigenous groups today. It requires mobility, knowledge of the environment, and sustainable practices to ensure resources remain available. This method contrasts with agriculture, which involves farming and domesticating plants and animals, and reflects a deep connection and reliance on natural ecosystems for survival.
