It's mind blowing to see children as young as 10 years old handling rifles like it's second nature. These children learn to hunt and put food on the table. There's a lot of steps in between they must also learn. (bleeding out, skinning etc) That's their way of life. Totally normal to them. I love it.
I agree, it really is. However, knowing how to live off the land is the most natural thing in the world there. Imagine how I felt when my nephew trailed an 8 point buck for three days. (two of them in the rain) He shot it, cleaned it, supplied the family with more than enough and shared with friends and neighbors. He was only 13 years old at the time.
Excellent observation. Or stepping back into a long time established organic rhythm.

A little too raw for my expansive Universe.

That is a comfort of strong DNA passed over naturally. As well as a feast to be enjoyed.
