Seriously scary animal. "Let's go poke it with sharpened sticks". I'd have to be pretty hungry to hunt one of those with a sharpened stick.

Actually they didn't hunt them with a sharpened stick but rather with a stick with a sharpened rock lashed to the end of the stick. Much more effective, especially if the rock was obsidian.

Gee lets go poke a 3000 pound bear with a piece of flint lashed to a stick. Yeah, that's so much better. That kind of talk around the old campfire probably went over real well.
