A nature writer,Barry Lopez,spent time with the Inuit of the Arctic and concluded that hunting societies had different attitudes about the land than industrial ones because "the focus of a hunter in a hunting society was not killing animals but attending to the myriad relationships he understood bound him into the world he occupied with them." What kind of attitude do hunting societies have?

The statement suggests that hunting societies have a different attitude towards the land than industrial ones, and focuses on attending to the relationships with animals rather than simply killing them. This aligns with the principles of the new ecological paradigm, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of humans and the environment, and the need for humans to live in harmony with nature. It does not align with the other choices, as Judeo-Christian values and anthropocentrism prioritize human dominance over nature, and do not necessarily prioritize relationships with animals.
