When you have built a Hunter’s Camp, you will have to set a limit on your hunting otherwise you will kill all animals in the area and there will be no way for them to reproduce. We should applaud Slavic Magic’s attention to historical accuracy here. Even though it makes it harder for us to feed our people, it is authentic.

In a normal hunting deposit in Manor Lords, there are 20 animals you can hunt. Check how much prey your hunters are allowed to hunt. If the available prey drops below the limit, the workers will become idle until their numbers rise. We do not recommend decreasing the limit too low otherwise it will take longer for the animals to procreate.

If you have checked your hunting limit and there are still available prey for your hunters to track but they are doing nothing then there is another solution. While whole families work at the Hunter’s Camp, it seems only the men go hunting. If those men are a part of your militia and are otherwise engaged, there will be nobody to hunt the animals.
