As usual, Geezer in Chief makes some valuable contributions. If "survival hunting" is going to mean mostly gathering edible wild plants, supplemented with occasional meat, then some preppers will have a big surprise coming to them. Quite a few of us internet posters (elsewhere and possibly even here) are under the impression that if SHTF, they can just pick up their .22 rifle and go hunt squirrels, or a larger caliber and hunt deer. Most of them don't seem to be regular hunters, and not that many thought about how long the land can sustain thousands of people with the same plan. I did hunter's ed, and at some point I realized I might not be so keen on field dressing an animal in my valuable time away from work...

Well, time for me to learn to identify edible plants, I suppose!
