I've always been curious about (hex)bear.

Nothing against vegans or vegetarians, please don't take offense, it's just something I thought of.

Also: Inb4 "human".

    I had a friend who swore he could run down a (healthy) deer and kill it with a knife, I'm vegetarian but I promised him if he could I'd eat it, I'm not terribly worried.

      Humans can, of they know how to track.

      Fit humans have better stamina than most land mammals, that used to be how we hunted.

        I'm sure it's possible if you're used to that level of endurance running. Even most fit people aren't capable of making good speeds at marathons with out regular practice though. I assume that sort of hunting would be a similar feat.

          i think that usually the endurance hunting didn't go that long because the prey animals were not adapted to being chased for so long. Also, it probably involved tracking them over distance after they initially flee; a human can't keep up in a dead sprint. Preventing the prey animal from resting rather than following right behind them
