I had heard of "the follow until exhaustion method". I only used it once. A bird had gotten into the office, so I propped open the front door to let it out. The stupid bird sat on the window above the door, so I tried to shoo it downward. It flew back into the office, so I found it and shooed it back to the door, which it sat above again. After about a half dozen round trips it was too tired to fly so I grabbed it and carried it outside. If I wanted a sparrow snack I could have had it.

Yep.

People do not realize that the ability to just keep moving is a human's biggest advantage in hunting.

You are not faster or stronger but you are relentless.

Even today there are horse walkers in the southwest of the US. In the end they just lead the one they want away.

Probably the way we got most of the animals we ended up domesticating.
