Actully what I'm refering to is not a hunt, it was sort of test, similar to the Spartan having th kill a slave to prove himself a man. Xerxes was put in a room with a Lion and reportadly used a pointed stick to kill it when he was 12, he wasn't given any armor either, The secen in 300 where Leonidas kills the wolf is actully based of what Xerxes had done, not Leonidas.
