Wilderness Food Procurement

Learn how to  lure, trap, kill and clean your next meal. Learn how to harvest natures bounty. 

The most difficult survival skill to learn is food procurement in the wilderness.  Without knowledge of hunting, trapping, fishing or being able to identify wild edible plants your are DEAD.  Without knowing how to store food you are DEAD.  Without knowing the difference between carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores and knowledge of how to properly bait them you are DEAD.

This course is about staying alive in the wilderness by knowing what, how and when to target readily available food sources. 

Those sources include anything with fins, fur or feathers, reptiles, insects, and edible wild plants.

There is no course like this available anywhere.  We will teach you how to think and hunt like an animal.  You will study animal tracks and scat, animal behavior and how to use their behavior to your advantage. 

You will be introduced to animal calls and how to use them to lure your next meal. You will become the predator and every living plant and animal will by your prey.

Students will be shown how to identify game trails and how to determine best placement for traps. Each student will learn how construct trigger mechanisms for the various traps. 

You will learn how to make your own snares from wire as well as parachute cord.
