Bava Metzia 85b says how Rabbi Chiya planted flax, made nets from the flax, trapped deers, gave the meat to orphans, wrote Sifrei Torah on the skins, brought them to a town without teachers, and used the torahs to teach children.
Presumably he shechted them before feeding the meat to orphans.

Obviously, pikuach nefesh is a different story. If you needed meat for health reasons, couldn't set kosher traps and couldn't get hold of kosher domestic animals, presumably you'd have to eat a treifah or neveila. |
Not relevant to a real-life hunter, just a comment on your use of the 39 melachot, practically it's easier to trap an animal before shechting it, but if someone snuck up on a wild animal and shechted it before it realized what was happening, seems to me it would be kosher.

Agreed, but I'll add- normally one plows before planting (or at least digs a hole, which still counts as חורש), but hydroponics somehow works without that.

Can anyone cite a responsa on hunting? I always thought hunting was stam not allowed — that the animal would have to be trapped and then shechted. The only things I can find are about hunting for sport, which is not the same as hunting for meat.
