Hunting can be traced back way long ago, when the first knowing ancestor of man started to walk the earth. Equipped with animalistic instinct, superior thinking ability and learning skills, he started to find ways to survive. In the caves, he sought shelter and from the trees and other animals, he found food and clothing. Not gifted with sharp claws and big pointy teeth, he used sharp stones and vines to capture his prey, and thus, the primitive form of hunting began. Nowadays, hunting is considered as one of the thrilling leisure activities known to mankind. Many even gather in a hunting forum to discuss things such as equipment, tactics and the bagged game after the hunt.

Once known as a necessity, fathers and elderly men taught their sons how to hunt for animals like deer, birds, fox and bears, of which they get the meat for food and the skin, feathers and fur, were used to make clothes. As the time pass by, commodities were traded and made available in the market. With food easily available in the market, most people realized that there was no need for them to go hunting for food anymore. Thus, hunting became a past-time for those who wanted to sharpen their skills.

Today, as the governments together with many organizations that are concerned about the wildlife try their best to prevent wild animals from going extinct, laws and regulations are created to observe responsible hunting. Hunting courses are given and licenses should be attained first before going out into the woods to hunt.
