Good sense as always. Far too much emphasis is put on "hunting" as a way to procure food and a good dose of common sense is needed to make people understand that Hunting is the least effective method of getting meat. The image of our Palaeolithic ancestors constantly chasing game with spears and bows is simply rubbish and has more to do with Hollywood than fact. Trapping and netting is far more productive than hunting and fishing and work 24 hours a day leaving you valuable time to do other things. Spending days trying to catch a fish with a rod, or hunting that Rabbit is just wasted time. Anyone who thinks they can survive by hunting alone post SHTF is going to die.
