What #icefishing can teach us about making #foraging decisions
Humans are natural #foragers in even most extreme habitats, digging up tubers in tropics, gathering mushrooms, picking berries, hunting seals in Arctic, and fishing to meet our dietary needs. Human foraging is sufficiently complex scientists believe that meeting so many diverse challenges helped our species develop memory, navigational abilities, social learning skills and similar advanced cognitive functions.
