Hunting is often a symbol of intercourse, an active sexual life.
If you hunt large animals or predators, your sexual activity finds its outlet in elements of sadism during or before sex.
If you hunt small animals or birds, you are active in sex, but you have a hidden aggressiveness that can manifest itself at the most unexpected moment, and you see children (small creatures) as an obstacle on the way to full-fledged sex.
If you have shot a lot of game or small animals and are proud of your prey, bragging about it, you suffer from an inferiority complex.
If you feel like some kind of beast, and the hunt is on you, you are prone to masochism.
