I'd really advise getting at least 20 Marksmanship before trying to use a sling to kill something. Also a q10+ Sling.
Aurochs and Mouflon will never run so just aggro them and then kill them from a shore, safely in a boat.

For foxes, cage them in with signposts near water then kill them from a boat. They normally break signposts but not when fleeing.

For Boars shoot them from a boat then switch to run speed when they attempt to flee. Proceed to punch them to death. As long as they're moving you automatically hit for full damage.

For bears use the same strategy as foxes. Don't be afraid to break aggro so you can safely cage them.
