It is probably some primitive instinct that makes man-hunt such a thrilling game. Like the treasure-hunt it has the advantage of adaptability to any numbers, time or place, and admits of infinite variations for the Scouter who gives play to his imagination. 

Skill in tracking and stalking are essentials if any success is to be obtained in the man-hunt, and if the Scouts are given plenty of practice in these activities, there is no limit to the possibilities of this type of game.
