Hunting, one of the most basic instincts of living creatures, is widely
used amongst the intelligent part of the fauna. After a successful hunt, it
has been a tradition to take the meat and the skin from the corpse, eat the
meat and sell the fur, which can provide a living for many hunters and
their families.

The terrain where you hunt naturally effects your possible game, and your
skills in hunting, move silently, camouflage are essential if you wish to
catch any rare animals. Rangers make some of the best hunters with all
their knowledge of animals, but other people can also be respectable
hunters, especially Gaesati in wolf or cat form.

Attacking the unsuspecting animal is best accomplished with some sort of
ranged weapon. It's relatively easy to get a great shot on the animal. Even
easier for you since you can call it as 'prey'.

It can be more effective to hunt in a party. The party should fan out to
different rooms and hunt. When someone finds big game you can all come
together to dispatch it. If you aren't a very good hunter maybe you should
stay and watch the leader, you might learn something.
