Cows are walking refridgerators. Grazing animals self forage, produce milk, some produce wool, leather, milk and fertilizer for agriculture and some are pack animals and help till the soil. It seems that it was more economical for society to turn to animals instead of fish. The rise in agriculture was the first step towards civilization. Growing foodleads to surplus wich encourages specialization among former hunter gatherers, surplus leads to trade among humans and the need to keep records. Records lead to a written language, math skills, the need to schedulel planting and harvest. A weritten language leads to a written history or culture that is not oral. So each person needs not learn everything that has come before. He can learn what he needs to acomplish his goals.

[Age of Reason]

He can learn what he needs to acomplish his goals.

Yes--he can spend years learning how to get-along in modern times, and then work all year until he finally gets a little vacation . . .

When he can enjoy life for a change by doing a little hunting, fishing, and gathering.

Providing he pays for the licenses and sticks to the dictated bag and size limits.
