The time loop trope is overused in sci-fi movies and TV shows, and yet when it's done right a time loop story can make quite an emotional impact on viewers who wish they could go back in time and fix the mistakes they made in life.
But Olga Osorio's short film reStart isn't about making things right in the past, thus it bears little resemblance to classic time loop films like Groundhog Day, Primer or Looper because this story is about losing control not regaining it.

How does he get the carcass back to his tribe?
That hunter earned his food and respected the animal he killed.
Gabriel, It really must be hard work bringing back such a large animal. I don't know how they would do it.
As far as it being more cruel, I agree that the animal experienced more fear because of the duration of the chase, but it is more heartless to shoot a creature for pleasure.
Awesome comment, you must teach me more of this dating philosophy.
I loathe hunting, but if you have to do it to feed youself etc be practical and grant the animal a swift death. Dying of exhaustion sounds awful and it's also a waste of time and energy resources for the hunter.
You would come out way ahead even if that animal only has about 800 calories per pound.

Do you guys get this stuff from watching "Pocahontas" or what? Before the La-Z-Boy was invented, nobody spouted this philosophical claptrap about what you ate and how you got it.
Chow down!
