@ Davidlastink I agree common sense says take fast and easy fire starter tools and make darn sure you don't lose them. I need to post a photo of how I have some small ferro rods attached to my foot...
The other reason to boil or braze your meat in a pot is that bringing up to a boil for a few minutes is a more certain way of killing all the parasites and pathogens than roasting large pieces of...
I agree Chris. That really bugged me on Discovery Channel N&A XL with the eel, sting rag and fish etc. These were out on their 2nd or third time not true newbies. Mostly they had metal water bottles...
Well I'm just glad hunter63 is apparently considering giving up his old flip phone and getting a smart phone. Welcome to short battery life and a reliance on backup batteries/chargers when you...
Interesting product. Unlike most products and filters they claim it works on heavy metals and viruses as well as the more common pathogens and does not have a limited shelf life like chlorine and...
Name of this particular forum is "Wilderness-Survival" not how to migrate across Europe without proper documentation. Which is more of a political issue, and copy right violations are another issue...
Welcome to Wilderness Survival Drago. My grandmother was born in Ukraine in 1898 then she immigrated to Canada. Then she married a German/Prussian immigrant so my father never did speak English very...
There are still small groups of people living fairly health lives with very primitive tools today. In low land area most don't live very long due to all the viruses and bacteria in topical/humid...
It depends on where you intend to travel. The vast majority of the surface of the earth receives no mobile phone signal at all and probably 99% does not receive my carrier's signal, Sprint which is...
Not only is it possible but I personally know and have lived with some people doing exactly that.
One chief of the Cyapo tribe in the Xingo national park of Brazil recently said the only thing his...
Welcome to WS.
Good deal when the city picks them up for you. I have had them remove some possums from live "have-a-heart" traps. But not cought any skunks yet or those dang alley cats which I really wanted to.

I have never been successful at hand drill only bow drill and with good cordage not slippery nylon paracord. I have been looking of horse-weed standing dead in the wild, never there when you need it....
In the specific case where New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin declared martial law in the city it really did not matter that this was not constitutional he had the police and other military to back him up...
This open to the public forum is not a place where members suggest ways to circumvent or violate the law if that is what you are asking for. If there is a law or laws that you disagree with there are...
Well done! So many uses for that noxious weed that is so difficult to get rid of. I have heard you can chew on the roots and then spit out the fiber and get a little carbohydrates that way. But have...
Welcome to WS Kari. How do you calculate your 95% trap rate? What animal species, baits, placement, time, etc. When I put a trap in a chicken coop overnight my success rate goes way up...
In H.S....
The link to the article worked for me but it is Canadian, some people's ISPs may not work well with foreign countries...
One basic common sense thing that my father taught me was to stop every so...
Some friends of mine who watch that Duck Dynasty show tell me that Miss Kay's recipe from her cook book is a good one but I just use my quick chicken and rice recipe but substitute squirrel or rabbit...
This is one of the most REALISTIC videos I have seen about starting a primitive fire with a horse-weed spindle via the hand-drill method in humid conditions. He talks about the importance of practice...
This was an excellent answer to the OP's question, better than just telling him his question was foolish. There are some unusual situations were on a multi-day trek out of a remote area a person may...
If you knew how to read the scale on a map you would realize that this is less of a distance than for someone from Chicago to send their kid to school in New York and vacation in Florida. A good...
Wow! Lots of unnecessary personal attacks on this thread from folks on both sides of the pond.
If a person for whatever reason was attempting primitive living and wanted to simply preseve some...
I was once car camping with an outdoor club of canoe/kayakers. The lawyer I carpooled with was a nice guy but about all he brought to eat where about 10 cans of the same type of soup. Cuts down on...
