Abstract: | The hunting techniques and activities of the Boyela, slash-and-burn agriculturalists in the central Zaire forest, are described and analysed, on the basis of field surveys carried out in 1976/1977 and 1978/1979. The description reveals the characteristics of hunting in a forest environment, and a comparison of Boyela hunting techniques and activities with those of African hunter-gatherers further indicates characteristics specific to hunting as carried out by forest agriculturalists.
