      Yes – as a matter of fact, they did!

      Interestingly, they are a lot of different kinds of animals. This makes them quite different to us. We most commonly eat chicken, pork and beef nowadays. People who lived 10,000 years ago were eating all kinds of different animals – including small animals like rabbit, badger and squirrel, big animals like deer and bears, and birds like goose, swan and pigeon.

      This was actually very nutritious for them to be eating – greater choice in your diet usually means you are healthier as a person! That’s why young children are not encouraged to only eat French fries and chicken nuggets, in fact! 😉
