Ancient Polynesians primarily hunted a variety of marine and terrestrial animals. They fished extensively, targeting species such as tuna, snapper, and other reef fish, and also hunted seabirds and marine mammals like seals. On land, they pursued pigs, chickens, and other birds, which were integral to their diet. Their hunting practices were closely tied to their navigation skills and knowledge of the ocean and islands.
