This is probably how you hunt nearly everything which is faster than you as long as you don't have the means to kill it with one shot.
You might be right, but i think it also has to do with the charging behavior of those animals. The plant a spear strat seems less effective if your prey is better able to change directions.
Yes, but for prey which changes directions the tactics are not so different. You work as a group, drive them to a cliff and this is their end.
