That's quite possible. Dead decaying animals are easier to obtain, and when hundry enough it will suffice. If it kills you, then the next meal will no longer be an issue for you.

Were more forest fires started on purpose to take the rotting decaying meal less needed?

Mostly the only place you see dead, decaying animals is places where predators are scarce.

If we are going with OOA you would be trying to get those dead decaying animals from things like hyenas.

Yeah.....

I am going to go hunt me a dikdik or throw a stick at a bird or something.

But you have fun!
