Read the excerpt from the time traveler’s guide to elizabethan england.

if you are hungry, you might feel inclined to turn to poaching. but be careful: this is risky. taking livestock is theft, and theft is a felony which carries the death sentence. killing wild animals that live on another man’s land is also against the law; even taking a single fish from a river can result in a fine of a shilling or more. it is unlikely that you will be hanged for taking a wild animal such as a rabbit; but, even so, you will get a fine amounting to three times the value of the animal as well as three months in prison, and you will have to enter into a bond to guarantee your good behavior in the future; a second offense will be treated more harshly. if a gamekeeper attacks you and you defend yourself, you can be charged with assault. you may find yourself on the gallows if you injure him.
