Hunting
The Blackfoot were talented buffalo hunters. This was a necessary skill for them. They had three methods of hunting buffalo:
BUFFALO JUMP
This was the best process of hunting buffalo because it killed the most at a time. Basically, they would chase buffalo of a high, steep cliff and watch them fall to their death. This was the easiest and most effective way to hunt.
BOWS AND ARROWS
This was another good way to hunt. The bows and arrows were made out of ash or willow. They were the main weapon of the
Blackfoot.
TRAPPING
This is a straight forward method. They made traps by arranging bushes and twigs into a trap. Then the buffalo walked right into it!
