The most insane part of that story is not running for a day. Its that he presumably dragged the animal back a distance equal to 1 day of running. Unless he got it back somehow else

If the animal wasnt big enough for that to be a herculean effort then its hard to see much worth from it. Although perhaps the distance wasnt that great (not necessarily a straight line from the starting point).

I just think about what a bitch it is to drag a deer a mile back to your truck. A days worth of running could be 120+ miles.




I have no reason to believe the spear man and runners behind wouldn't gut and part the animal in the field. Many hands make light work.


I seem to recall them showing him carrying it across his shoulders.
