To look an animal in the eyes, collapsed from pure exhaustion. After doing your best to put yourself in its frame of mind only to eat. Then to, after all that, show empathy for the animal and ensure it’s spirit returns to where it rightfully should is just amazing and a huge defining aspect of what it means to be a human being.

And now we have faceless, orchestrated slaughterhouses, we give indifferent and unimaginable agony from birth to death. It is not right. It will never be right in my heart. This is necessity, and this is the state of nature. Brutal, perhaps, but not excessively cruel. No cages, no domination, no excessive slaughter. Just a dignified and respectful death. A battle of survival between two wills.

@@DeandreSteven sense of duty? Wtf? They chase it because its the only way for them. We can sustainably run a lot longer before we get exhausted despite being slower than animals.

Exhaustion and fatigue is known to counter anxiety. Endurance excercise is known to release endorphines which act as a pain killer and in larger quantities after a long run this can lead to a euphoric high known as runners high. It didn't seem scary or gruesome compared to pretty much any natural standard. I can't speak for the bit leading to having to actually endure. Whether that was terrifying or not. But I imagine there's an initial point where adrenaline is fueling everything. Before it transitions into a marathon. When you're on adrenaline you don't suffer. All that circuitry takes a back seat. Infact it can feel exhilerating when recalling the incident after the fact.

I find it so interesting how most predators rely on their sheer strength and size in order to overpower or subdue their prey, thus usually targeting the weak, small or older animal out of the group. But, humans rely on a different set of traits; endurance, empathy, intelligence, and other advantages like full-body sweat glands to hunt animals, as opposed to just size and strength. So instead of targeting the smaller animals, we would target the larger, stronger and potentially lower-stamina animals out of the group. This is eye opening, on top of the part where he uses empathy to put himself in the mindset of the fleeing animal to track it. Simply amazing.

That specific component is inextricably intertwined with our physical health, and that I think is something we need to address in our society. Too long has society be been lazing around, pursuing a future that has no other goal apart from mere carnal pleasure. The will of the mind is what differentiates man from an animal, and that skill is one that I feel should be exercised a lot more.

@@nicksalvatore5717 he’s saying industrial animal farming uses more of the animal, which may or may not be true idk, but I think there’s a good chance it’s true. Industrial has the advantage of machinery to make useless parts of the animal useful - for example, let’s say these Africans tan the hide and use it to make clothing. There will still be small scraps left over when they trim the hide to a useful shape, and these small scraps of hide will get discarded. In an industrial setting, those small scraps of hide would get collected and thrown in with all the other scraps, then put into a machine to turn into glue. On an industrial scale they can take the scraps from thousands of animals and make it worthwhile to cook up a batch of glue; but for an African tribe that kills a single animal a full days work + firewood for a tablespoon or two of glue would not be worth it. There are plenty of other examples just like that. Economies of scale basically, something that would not be worth it on a small scale becomes very worthwhile at a large scale. If everyone ate industrial meat once a week like these tribesmen there would be no issue; the problem with industrial farming is it’s too efficient, making meat super cheap which then causes overconsumption. But the industrial farming process itself is extremely efficient at using up every part of the animal, which was the point of the comment. No one claimed that industrial meat is the most efficient way to feed a population, because it’s obviously not.

Remember, that this meat is not his only source of food, whilst a hunting party hunts, those who stay back at their settlement gather foods from the area. Meat would have made a small fraction of their diet. The average amount of work/day for a tribal society was about 6-7 hours a day, with occasional days longer to get meat. This can actually be seen in human psychology as the ideal work week, at which we are the most productive is 35 hours, excluding weekends that's 7 hours a day, including weekends is 5 hours a day.

It's not as complicated as you might think. You're smaller than the animal so you know it can't take any paths that you can't. Also you can sweat, jog on two legs and carry food, water and weapons. Though impressive to us, to them this is like a 9-5 job. For a more impressive example, here's some other African hunters stealing meat from lions by marching together towards them to look like they formed a bigger animal. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3XYk4Cbg9GGrsU

@@DINO_X65most animals can sweat, but we do have some fur, on the scalp, face(eyelashes and eyebrows, beards/mustache), and others on other parts. But we don’t have fur mostly covering our body. We do have it at the same time, but its a lot less dense to allow us to maximize sweating and minimize panting like dogs.

That ritual at the end shows that deep connection we have with animals. The respect he showed was very spiritual and beautiful.

I love how they show respect for his prey, they understand that it is from nature just like them, people think the ancient men as a primitive and ruthless creatures but the modern world is even worst, go outside for a burguer without think where's come from feels alienating.

Yeah tormenting it and making it suffer for 8 hours, as opposed to giving it 1 bullet in the head which it never even sees coming.

Yup. Most hunters I've seen understand the importance of respecting the animal. It's mainly those in charge of slaughtering who don't always show respect.
