The Hunter Gatherer (Animal-Based) Diet

Hunter-gatherer societies had diverse diets depending on their environment, but they generally prioritized the following types of foods: 1. Animal Protein: Hunter-gatherers consumed a significant amount of meat from hunted game, including large mammals (such as deer, bison, and wild boar), smaller mammals (such as rabbits and birds), and fish.
