hunting techniques
Prey capture strategies
Hunting techniques are the methods used to pursue and capture or kill game.
These range from stalking and ambush to drives that push animals toward waiting hunters.
Modern techniques include stand hunting from elevated positions, calling to attract prey, and tracking with dogs.
The phrase appears in both practical and anthropological contexts: Early human hunting techniques shaped tool development.
Figuratively, the term extends to any systematic pursuit: His hunting techniques for finding rare books were legendary.
