Question by : How many acres are needed for sustainable living?
Imagine a group of 15-40 people living together as a group or tribe in the wilderness. Except for some permaculture and animals kept (such as chickens), most of the food comes from hunting and gathering.
How many acres are really needed, as all hunting and gathering will be on the tribe’s own land?
Very thankful for a reply, and please leave a source or other proof of what you’re saying.

Answer by R U PUFFIN
That’s a big variable, 15 to 40 people! 1 person can eat a deer in a month. 40 people could eat 480 deer a year! Your tribe needs to set up camp on a river near the coast. The seasonal migrations of fish coming up river to spawn would provide more food than 1000 acres of prime hunting grounds
