Wonderful Link, thanks for posting it. I remember seeing it some time ago on TV. The Tracking, Bushcraft and Survival Skills exibited by the San are truely awe inspiring. After over 30 years of Hunting I still have little clue on Tracking, Trailing etc and I know better and more experienced Hunters than I who don't have anything like the Range of Skills our Ancestors had either. It takes a Life, an Education in the Wild, not the Modern World. How resiliant and knowlegable these People must be, now days I know people who freak out if Chocolate isn't sprinkled on their Cuppa.

Once upon a time, back in the olden Days I used to Hunt Pigs on the Flood Plains on a property thats now part of Cubby Station in a similar manor, just trot along after them, they generally knocked up a lot quicker than I did. Now days I would not run out of sight on a Dark Night

I liked how much the hunter respected the Kudu

makes me think about the way I respect the quarry
