Wilderness Survival Quiz! Part 3! coming soon!
Mountain Lion – A make your self look larger and face the lion instead of running away. They like to attack from behind and they generally will think twice about attacking something big.
Emergency Food – Trail mix and Snickers – The trail mix is covered in salt and it won’t spoil easily. The snickers would remain good only as long as you keep it sealed.
Aluminum foil – a reflector for your campfire/food a signaling device if smoothed out properly.
In the desert I would keep my mouth and eyes covered to conserve water.
What is the most important tool – A multitool/knife. You can make rope and you can make fire for light. It is a lot easier if you already have a knife.
Boiling water would probably be the safest and distilling the steam would probably be the safest. It would kill the bacteria etc and purify the water even if it were contaminated.
1. B
2. A
3. To start a fire, to use as a cup
4. None, travel at night when it’s cooler. Hide in the shade during the day. If I had to choose one, it would be C.
5. C
6. B
They’re all common sense.
1. A If you look bigger it makes the lion think twice about it’s target.
2. Trail Mix and Snickers. Good source of proteins and carbs, plus peanuts help stop you up if you catch my meaning.
3. To help start fires and to keep warm
4. B and to an extent C
5. Rope
6. Boiling is always the safest way to purify water.
question number 1 i pick d none of the above. I would look directly in the cats eyes never taking eyes of and slowly back away. a may work but im not sure.I wouldnt play dead,question 2 a because i like trail mix. 3.aluminum can be used as a reflector to attract help or we use it to cook on or wrap up meat to put on the fire or fish.question 4 i dont know im not desert material,i guess it would be keep moving, question 5 c question 6 is always to boil the water as boiling kills bacteria. so b.
1- A because mountain lions are afraid of larger animals (so the theory goes)
2- chicken nuggets because if you can get them chances are you are close to a mcdonalds and youll be saved
3- Make a reflective thing to signal for help, make it into a cup to boil water in and then drink
4- c when eating food the body uses water to digest
5- c with a multitool you can do many things, but with a rope or flashlight their uses are very limited
6 A- just a teaspoon of bleach in a jug of water will kill anything in it and still be safe to drink
