One of the possible reasons that hunters and gatherers do not work
more than they do may be to avoid overexploitation of their environment.
Think about this: overhunting might allow people to feast for a few
days, but over the long run, the effect would simply be to destroy the
local game supplies. Hunters and gatherers also demonstrate less
patriarchy and ownership taboos than industrial society members. You
will explore these differences in a PowerPoint presentation for this
assignment.
