Sweat (hunting)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Drops of sweat on sheet

Sweat is the hunter's name for the blood of the game and the hunting dog as soon as it emerges from the body of the animal. The meaning “blood” next to the common body sweat is already documented for the old Norse word “sveiti”. In some Germanic language levels, the verb "sweat" also means "swelling blood from animals".

The stalking signs (blood, meat, bones, etc.) made by welded-on game facilitate any search . The color and consistency of the sweat in the sweat trail suggest the location of the shot.
