Market hunters : ウィキペディア英語版 | Market hunters
Market hunters were the terrestrial equivalent of commercial fishermen. They are typically distinguished from subsistence hunters and recreational hunters by the use of the animals killed. Market hunters sold or traded the flesh, bones and/or skins and feathers of slain animals as a source of income; while subsistence hunters individually use these materials directly as food and/or tools, clothing and shelter. Recreational hunters often consume the flesh of slain animals as a minor portion of their diet, and may use the skins for decoration or clothing. Subsistence and recreational hunters may be prohibited from selling the wild animals they kill. ==Commercial hunting== Market or commercial hunters exploited animals as a natural resource, for both money and economic development.〔 Like commercial fishing, market hunting focused on species which gathered in large numbers for breeding, feeding, or migration. Market hunters were primarily made up of white or sometimes the Metis or other mixed-race (one parent of white or black lineage and the other parent, often the mother, of American Indian/Native American lineage) hunters who organized themselves into factory type groups of people to systematically depopulate an area of any valuable wildlife over a short period of time. Some of the animals which were hunted included bison, deer, many different birds, waterfowl/ducks, geese, pigeons, various seals and walrus, various fish, river mussels and clams. They were divided up into the actual hunters, the skinners, the butchers all the way down to the marketers of the fur, feathers, shells, blubber, meat, etc., to easterners and also Europeans, except for the buffalo meat that the white market hunters left on the dead animal to spoil on the plains, after only taking primarily the fur and skin (for robes and very strong and tough leather) also the tongue, which is a delicacy in eastern restaurants.
