The correct answer is D. One tribe member would lure one of the large creatures way from the rest and the entire tribe would attack it.

For example mammoth, they had to be close to the beast which is powerful. They jabb spears to the animal so as to confuse it.

The isolated animal which is surrounded by hunters distract it by waving hands at it while the others are spearing it.
