Bubba starts jogging toward the :antelope. He approaches the antelope. The antelope startles, jumps, :and runs away like the clappers. Bubba keeps trotting after the :antelope. He approaches the antelope. The beast startles, jumps, and :runs away like the clappers. Bubba continues jogging after it. It :doesn't take all that long at all before you have one compleatly :winded antelope (if not actually dead from strain -- it happens not :infrequently) that Bubba can just walk on up to and hit over the head :with a nearby rock while it struggles to breathe. : :Several "primitive" tribes continue to hunt this way to this day. Hmm. That may work with a number of prey species, but it clearly isn't going to work with trying to hunt a horse! Probably not a buffalo either. I was going to suggest that it wouldn't work with anything that massed much more than a human, but I seem to recall that it works not bad for elephants and giraffes.
