Hello Everyone,
I am wondering if anyone knows of research into how many acres of land
in a particular bio-region are needed to support a human in a hunter
gatherer type lifestyle. For example, how many acres would you need in
the Edwards Plateau country to support a human foraging on prickly pear,
rabbits, deer, etc. Chihuahua desert? Sierra Nevada Fir Forests?
Pacific NW Douglas Fir forests areas? NJ Pine Barrens? Eastern
Decidous Hickery/Oak? Anywhere the ecology has been fairly well defined.
Any thoughts?
