Some fire-bellied tortles prefer not to engage in head-on violence, and become trappers rather than hunters. These fire-bellies stake out the tribe's prize, then move in for the kill once it has been subdued. Aside from larger prey, trappers also take time to ice fish in the Flaming Tundra's rivers and lakes, and they can cleverly use their fishooks as weapons to bully their targets around. |
