Hunting has been one of the major parts of the world in history as well as in today’s world. Hunting as depicted from the name is the game of running after wild animals, providing some sort of bait to them and killing them. The main objective behind all types of hunting is to acquire something from the prey. Hunting is nowadays a passion for many but if we look at past it was the source of living for people as there was no source of food back then like today. Today people grow food through natural or by artificial methods but if we look beside this than we can see that people even do hunting today.
There are certain methods of hunting that people adopt while perusing wild animals. These methods range from a wide variety of techniques. These techniques vary from animal to animal as all species are different from each other and they can be tackled through different techniques. We can take its example from an educational institute that there are all kinds of students in a class but all students don't have the same level so what a teacher does is that the teacher manages every student differently according to student’s way. So the same goes for hunting as the technique changes according to species.
Origin
In today’s world, people don't solely rely on hunting as a source of their food while in societies like hunters and gatherers they were dependent on hunting as their only source of food. These people used to live in groups and they used to move from one place to another and used to hunt wild animals for their survival. Once in a specific area, they have consumed all animals they then used to move to another area in search of animals for hunting. At that time the methods of hunting were very sufficient and what they used were rocks, bones, and horns, etc. Adding to this, they used arrows, and some bows other tools of hunting of wild animals. So there are multiple methods of hunting that are discussed further.
Bow Hunting
This is one of the most ancient methods of hunting as well as even today it is an interesting game which is played around the world. A bow constitutes of an arrow and an arrowhead. The arrowhead is the source of shooting the arrow and it strikes the animal with such a pressure that even it pierces through the animals. Today most people use it as a game for striking at the right point. Even today most people don't need hunting as a source of food but the reason for using this method is that it has now become a passion for many in the world.
Bow hunting was from the very start a part of human history and is still today. It doesn't only require a bow but it also has a proper camouflage that includes a knife, pair of extra arrows, or pairs of extra strings that could be used in case of emergency. Bowhunting is the most beautiful and appealing hunting and the most interesting fact is that it can be done easily from long distances.
Use Of Baits
This is one of the most common methods of hunting of wild animals. It is the nature of animals that they fall for the baits in their way. Method of using baits also varies from animal species for example if you want to catch a fish in dam than you have to provide bait using a hood and capture it the moment it goes for the bait. This is one of the oldest methods of catching fishes. On the other hand, if we look at other animals like a deer than it can be hunted using meat as bait. A bait is placed randomly and when a deer approaches to eating it during its meal the hunter uses his technique of capturing it. The most important thing about using bait is that this method increases the chances of success.
Hunt By Use Of Guns
This type of hunting is the most modern method of hunting. The difference it has from traditional hunting is the use of a tool that is guns or riffles instead of a bow or knife. This hunting is easier than the traditional style of hunting because in traditional hunting the hunters had more chances of failure at hunt than by the use of guns. For example, guns have higher efficiency, higher accuracy than the majority of the other tools. For example, people often go for the hunt of birds and it is a moving target that is the complexity.
A bow and arrow are if used then there are chances that the timing of arrow reaching can be delayed or wind pressure can affect the direction. In the case of guns the bullet reaching time is very good as well as the accuracy of the gun is even higher. For moving targets gun is the best method of hunting. Guns and rifles can also be used in the killing of larger animals for example if there is a bear or loin so an arrow cannot be used to kill such large animals instead guns and rifles are best for this purpose.
Method Of Pursuing
Another technique of performing a successful hunt is to track the prey. It is a method of past people actually when they used to follow animals to hunt the. It is not an easy task as if the prey gets a slightest of the idea you could never be able to track the animal as it runs out of sight. This method requires more skills than any other kind of hunting because while tracking an animal you should be able to study footprints, smell the scent, read patterns of movement of animals. The things that need to be taken into consideration are what you are carrying the type of clothes you are wearing. This matters because you need to have light-weighted to pursue animals.
Hunting has been part of lives of the human being for centuries and even today many houses are dependent on hunting. It is important to learn hunting methods so that if you have to go on an official hunt you should know what methods you want to choose and what you need to have on hunt.
