“Hares are very low fat meat.”
There is actually a term for that “rabbit starvation” or something like that. I can’t remember, but just like you said.
And I want to find the episode of that guy killing a musk ox. That is flat out dangerous. Slightly safer than a Cape Buffalo.... slightly.
He shot it with his re-curve bow and arrow.
It was injured so he ran up and stabbed it with a knife once or twice.
Pretty bad A$$ dude.
He was a very experienced big game hunter/survivalist.
It took place in the NW Territories of Canada just south of the Arctic Circle.
