Die Jagd ist ein weiteres Thema, das der Autor sehr zu schätzen scheint. In einem großzügigen Kapitel wird das Jagen mit diversen Fallen und das Verarbeiten von erlegten Tieren beschrieben. Auch in anderen Kapiteln wird immer wieder auf das Jagen von Tieren verwiesen. Sicherlich eine nützliche Fertigkeit, sollte ich plötzlich in der Wildnis gestrandet sein.

To be a good forager, you first have to know the lay of the land. What types of plants, fruit-bearing trees, and vegetation grow in your area? Where can you find them? Im Großen und Ganzen ist der Inhalt nicht schlecht, ist für mich als langjährigen Pfadfinder sehr oberflächlich. Als Grundlagenbuch mag das aber taugen, wobei ich den Fokus manchmal anders gewählt hatte. Statt dem Leser zu erklären, wie man ein spezielles Feuer für "Grubenschmieden" baut, würde ich lieber mehr als einen Stichpunkt zum Thema sicherer und verantwortungsbewusster Umgang mit Feuer sehen. Remember, in a large-scale disaster, most modern conveniences will go to the dogs. Without the grid, food supply, clean water, functional sewage, and the internet, society as we know it will plunge into chaos.
