Cree food
The Cree's food source was primarily hunting.The Plains Cree hunted bison in a Nomadic way, following the bison herd.They depended on the bison for many things such as; food, clothing,and materials for their tipis. They would dry the meat and then pound it into little pieces. Then fat and sometimes dried berries were added and it was allowed to harden into cakes. The final product was called pemmican. Since they did not have bison to depend on,the Northern Cree hunted caribou,moose, elk and smaller animals such as beaver and rabbits. The Eastern Cree fished and hunted seals from canoes.Cree woman gathered nuts and fruits, and in southern groups they grew some corn.
