How did the comanches survive hunting?
The Comanches were skilled hunters who relied on their deep understanding of the land and animal behavior. They primarily hunted bison, using strategies that included driving herds into natural corrals or over cliffs. Their mobility, facilitated by their exceptional horsemanship, allowed them to follow migratory patterns and access various hunting grounds. Additionally, they utilized every part of the animal for food, clothing, and tools, ensuring their survival in the Great Plains.
What does a commanche look like?
I guess you mean "What did a historic Comanche look like?".
The Comanche very quickly adopted items of white American dress, including shirts, hats, dresses and (unusually) trousers.
Native dress for men was a breechclout with knee-length flaps front and back, thigh-length leggings gartered below the knee and fitted with triangular flaps each side (sometimes painted blue). Skin shirts were fringed and often painted yellow or green.
Native dress for women was originally a knee-length skirt and a poncho-like top; later three-skin dresses were worn. Dresses seem to have been painted in muted yellow or buff and were heavily fringed.
Moccasins had long fringes at the heel and along the instep; women combined moccasins with low leggings to create "boots", often with silver conchos down the side seam.
Women wore their hair loose and with the central parting painted red. Men wore two long braids wrapped in otter fur, or plastered the hair with red clay.

How long has first nations woodland tribe been around for?
There were eight principal tribes of Woodland First Nations, all of whom spoke languages belonging to the Algonkian family. The now extinct Beothuk lived in Newfoundland, while the Mi'kmaq occupied Nova Scotia, northeastern New Brunswick, Gaspe in Quebec, and Prince Edward Island. Southwestern New Brunswick and the neighbouring part of Quebec were the home of the Malecite.
The Montagnais and Naskapi lived in what is now Quebec and Labrador. The Montagnais occupied the heavily wooded area along the north shore of the St. Lawrence as far east as Sept-Iles. The tundra-like lands of the Naskapi extended far into northeastern Quebec.
The Ojibway occupied a large territory encompassing all the northern shores of Lake Huron and Lake Superior from Georgian Bay to the edge of the Prairies, and to the height of the land north where the rivers begin to flow towards Hudson Bay. The Algonquin lived in the Ottawa Valley. The Odawa lived mainly on Manitoulin Island in the northern Lake Huron, Georgian Bay area.
Flanking the Ojibway on the north and west, the Cree also occupied an immense area. They lived on the southern perimeter of Hudson Bay, as far north as Churchill. Their territory was bounded on the east by Lake Mistassini and extended all the way west to the Prairie frontier.
