Animal had not been domesticated therefore; Cavemen did not drink cow’s milk. Cavemen living near waterways had a high consumption of fish. Cavemen living inland had a high consumption of wild animals. Of course, the Caveman had to hunt and capture these animals. Capturing wild animal was a life threatening. Cavemen only have wooden and stone man-made spears. The Paleolithic Period ended approximately 10,000 years ago and is a part of man’s evolution.
