Off the top of my head I can think of only one container that can be used just as it is found. There's probably more...any ideas?
Milkweed pods make excellent scoops or dippers. They are small, waterproof, and easy to drink from. Perhaps they could be used for administering liquid medicine.
Hey good one I never thought of milkweed pods before. I know you can use birch bark its waterproof.
Shells of various types for melting and working with pine sap and pitch.
Gourds coated with bees wax on the in side.
Turtle Shells
1) Use to burn sage and other botanicals.
2) To use as a pot, first boil it then use it to heat food and water over a fire.
intestines of animals
You can fold birch bark into cups, bowls, even crude boxes. I have a book that has the folding techniques but I've not much luck finding similar examples on google searches. I'll try to find them later. :)
EDIT: ok, I found the box template (http://www.scoutingresources.org.uk/..._utensil04.jpg) but the cup one is a bit trickier.
We used to make birchbark into a cone and fill the bottom and all the holes with pine sap. we would hold it together with pine sap also. we then dried it over a fire. careful not to burn the sap. you only want to drie it.
theres a bunch of other ways to fold the birch bark but the most effective method is the pine sap sealant that flan mentioned above because it doesn't leak and wont unfold itself . iv used reeds to make water containers on a few occasions but birch works much beter and is much more readily available.
Rivercane, Grows all around here. Ive used it for Needle case, Powder Measures,Use to hold char cloth, Fishing tackle, Also makes a great fishing pole.
Bamboo, or Cane make exelent jars if you leave one end closed and drill a hole in the other segment, cap the hole with bark or wood.Quote:

I prefer a coal-burned container from a stump or log. Birch bark makes a good short-term container but you always have to repair it, so I just start from scratch and coal-burn my containers.
or you can be like bear grylls and use a snake hide to keep your pee in. :eek:
Leather or most skins can make boiling vessels. Birch bark folded in a cone in easy and holds good. Any flexibe bark would probably work.
I don't watch his shows, I don't trust him.
