Difference between Human and Hunter-gatherer

Human vs. Hunter-gatherer

Humans (taxonomically Homo sapiens) are the only extant members of the subtribe Hominina. A hunter-gatherer is a human living in a society in which most or all food is obtained by foraging (collecting wild plants and pursuing wild animals), in contrast to agricultural societies, which rely mainly on domesticated species.
