Atop that, the man belongs to a small tribe and was one of few that able enough to venture out and find food for his fellow tribesmen. He made his preparations before setting out. He gathered tools to help ensure his survival. He readied his weapons for the prey that he was hoping to happen upon. Lastly, before he set out, he began to gather some basic rations for the journey ahead, but soon made the decision that he best leave it all for the tribe.   He set out in the forest, and it was not long until he was overtaken by hunger. The man scavenged as best he could, yet he was spending much greater amounts of energy then he was gaining. Nearing the end of the third day, the man hadn’t seen so much as the tracks of an animal. He was
