Very easy to kill...one wooden arrow will do it with a Fine Wood bow or better. Also, if you have upgraded (level 3 or 4) bronze or better armor and swamp food (sausages & turnip stew) one hit won't hurt that bad....and then you can one-shot them with whatever weapon you have. Personally, I prefer the bow method: Just keep backing away from them until they come at you in a straight line and shoot them.
