It wasn’t until the second half of the 20th century that camo became a thing for hunters. Nor is it to suggest that hunting will be uprooted and done away with in the near future, because it won’t.īut a big departure from the past is the use of camouflage. That’s not to say hunting is gone, because it’s not. Hunters no longer are essential for survival.
