Description

Hunter/gathering communities obtain their dietary requirements from the land by gathering those crops that are naturally available and hunting the wild game. These communities tend to be nomadic following the game and hence covering large areas. The population density is therefore very low. Communities that combine hunter/gathering activities with agriculture may also be considered.
