      They were eating far less meat than we do today. They also respected animals a lot more usually, with a lot of cultural and religious rituals surrounding hunting.

      A lot of pagan religions were about “gifts of the hunt/nature” and to not squander those gifts etc. People held a lot of respect for nature in a way we don’t today with our industrial meat farming.

        No they did not, that was basically the main source of food for thousands of years, agriculture didn’t take hold for a long ass time.
