'''Hunting'''<br>
A Ranger is someone who is completely self sufficient in the wilds, and in
addition to foraging, has the ability to hunt creatures for food. To the
outsider, this may, at first, seem rather a paradox - that someone so
dedicated to the preservation of the wilds and its flora and fauna could
hunt the very animals he defends. However, such people demonstrate a
lack of understanding as to what a Ranger is.

Rangers believe that natural order is the best way to do things, a belief
that they share with the Druids, and while it can be hard for an outsider
to understand this, life and death, the hunter and the hunted is a vitally
important aspect of this natural order. Rather than the Hunt which provides
sustenance, it is the needless and mindless destruction of the wilds that
the Ranger is opposed to. Within the natural environment, he is no different
to the creatures he defends, hunting to survive, taking only what he
needs, and playing his part in the wider natural harmony.

The cycle of Life can be hard to understand for those who build walls around
themselves to shut nature out, but to a Ranger it is their daily guide.

A Ranger should not hunt animals for pleasure, however, and must be sure
to honour his prey, and respect its place in the world. He should kill
only what he needs, and not hunt the creatures of the forests for
experience. But above all else, a Ranger must not, under ANY circumstances
kill an animal of his own clan once he joins one. To do so would
carry the most severe penalties.
