    In Richard B. Lee’s article, “What Hunters do for a Living” he takes readers into the world of the !Kung Bushmen who lived in the Kalahari desert. He then documents their gathering and food practices during the late 1960’s. Many decades ago, humans were entirely dependent on gathering and hunting their own food. Vegetables were 60-80% of the !Kung Bushmen’s total diet (Lee, 1968, p. 37). Today, engage in dietary habits including detrimental to our health.

    888 Words  | 2 Pages

    Years ago my family took a trip to Yellowstone National Park. I chose this common experience for this memory assignment. First, I made a list of all the things I remembered from my trip at Yellowstone. I remembered we traveled in our motorhome and got halfway to our destination and parked on the side of the road and slept there for the night. I remember seeing the famous geyser; Old Faithful, in addition to seeing lots of bison, and bears. I recall one night that we stayed in a campground bears were in the campground and we were being told to stay in our campers. I also remember during the trip my dad would give me all the spare change and I would collect it. I saved the change up to buy souvenirs or candy. I also remember going to a shirt

    The first time I ever shot a deer was back in 2011. I was in 5th grade. This was not the first time I had gone out hunting, just the first time I ever went out to shoot a deer. It was a fairly warm fall day and my mom took me out with her to the new hunting shack my dad just built. It is a very sturdy shack made with wood that blends into the trees around it. It sits in our tree line viewing our hay field with woods all around the field. The smell of fall, decaying leaves dying grass hung in the air heavily. My mom told me to not expect to shoot anything my first time out. We waited out for a few hours before we started to see anything but everything we saw was too far away to get a shot at. We waited probably another half

    Can you single out just one day from your past that you can honestly say changed your life forever? I know I can. It was a typical January day, with one exception; it was the day the Pope came to St. Louis. My brother and I had tickets to the youth rally, and we were both very excited.

    With music blasting, voices singing and talking, it was another typical ride to school with my sister. Because of our belated departure, I went fast, too fast. We started down the first road to our destination. This road is about three miles long and filled with little hills. As we broke the top of one of the small, blind hills in the middle of the right lane was a dead deer. Without any thought, purely by instinct I pulled the wheel of the car to the left and back over to the right. No big deal but I was going fast. The car swerved back to the left, to the right, to the left. Each time I could feel the car scratching the earth with its side. My body jolted with the sporadic movements of the car. The car swerved to the right for the last time. With my eyes sealed tight, I could feel my body float off the seat of the car.

    The summer of my junior, my friend Brandon went to Big Bear. He was there for a week and said “I got something for you”. He refused to tell me what it was no matter how much I insisted. My first thought was that he was going to be the goofball that he is and say he brought me snow. When he finally got back and we both entered our summer class he showed me. In slow motion I could see what he had in his backpack. It was a coca cola bottle, but as I turned it I realized that it had my name on it. I have always told him that merchandise with names on it usually never have my name. It was such a simple gift yet so thoughtful.It meant a lot to me because something so small made me smile. It meaningful because it was a surprise but not one I expected

    The stillness of it all made it seem like a picture, like the earth was frozen in time. We were both zoned out taking in the surrounding. A small fox came out of a mound in the grown up grass and started running around in front of us occasionally pouncing down on what seemed to be a rat, each time he would come up with an empty mouth and keep on his way. Crows were perched high on tree limbs cawing to the others around, it sounded like a warning call, like something you hear in a scary movie. Suddenly it all seemed to stop, I heard my sister gasp and she jolted her legs to the side. I started to speak, but was interrupted by her telling me to move out of the way. Pulling her gun up she locked in on a deer running down the hill. We could hear each hoof hit the ground and we knew she could not get a good shot with it running. Panicking, I started to whistle, and to our disbelief, it stopped. Once again time was still. I did not move my eyes from the deer that was now about 100 yards away from us. My ears started to ring and I felt a knock in my chest. My sister jumped up and started to unload the gun; that is when I realized she had taken the shot. Unzipping us from the blind she started hopping around, it was like someone had just given her a million bucks. When we got over to the deer the excitement only grew, the deer was
