The statements that are not accurate descriptions of hunter-gatherers are:

  1. They rarely eat meat. (Hunter-gatherers typically hunt and fish, making meat a significant part of their diet.)
  2. They live in permanent villages. (Hunter-gatherers usually have a nomadic lifestyle, moving to follow food sources rather than living in permanent settlements.)

The other statements, "Wild fruits, berries, and nuts are part of their diets" and "Killing animals is a major task in their lives," are accurate descriptions of hunter-gatherers.
