i’ve lived in mountainous regions my entire life, we have deer and mountain lions. learning the “eye shines” is so impeccably important to your safety. i’ve had a few encounters with cougars and the only way i’ve been able to distinguish them is through there eyes. very important skill.

[@alexanderwindh4830]

Eye shines? How does that help?

[@vexy9199]

@@alexanderwindh4830 In the mountains where I live, dealing with both deer and mountain lions is part of life. Knowing the difference between their 'eye shines' is a crucial safety skill. When it's dark, and all you see are glowing eyes, being able to tell if it's a harmless deer or a potentially dangerous cougar is a big deal. The way the eyes shine is different for each, and it's the only way I've been able to distinguish them in the wild. It's not fancy, but it's a skill that can make all the difference when you're out there.

I'm an outdoors man. I hunt, fish, and camp, and have done so all over the US and parts of Canada. I know pretty much how to stay safe there, but I would not mess around in the Amazon at all.

I spent almost a year in the amazon and I only had one time that I was a bit scared. You can kind of gauge how big a caimen is by eye shine and how far apart their eye's are. Once we crossed a very large swamp at night wading up to our waistline. You regularly see caimens eyes looking back at you without thinking much about it, while crossing this swamp we see these 2 eyes looking at us which were soooo much further apart than all the others we had seen, I mean this caimen must have been huge! me and the guy I was with both looked at each other and said we better get out of here....We got to the other side of the swamp and looked at the GPS and realised we was on the wrong side of the swamp and had to cross it again! I was pretty nervous and found myself gripping my machete really tight until I got out the other side. Great memories looking back on it though!

[@christopherholmes7060]

@@Alexxx---101 I appreciate your comment, and your experience. I imagine I would probably do OK in the Amazon, but the unknown is always kinda scary. I have been scared a few times because of bears, and cats, but I always had my firearms to rely on in case anything happened. Not sure I would be able to get permits for that in other countries.

[@deezymon]

The part about the MRSA infection is crazy. I cut my hand real bad working, and then re opened the wound about a week later at work and it got infected. Within 12 hours my arm was twice the size from elbow to fingertips. I got to the hospital and within 1.5 hours I was unconscious in the operating room. That shit is nothing to play with. I couldn't imagine developing it on my face in the middle of the Amazon.

[@amandarios448]

I just kinda realized that I have a lot of knowledge that maybe people have no idea about so I wanted to share. 1. Skincare, yes I said skin care, all tribes have their own skincare routine. Since youre a tiny kid they will shave and scrape hair out, frequently, scrape the skin and treat it with a sacred mixture of plants, charcoal, dust and so on. There are many different ways this is done, but it's done in every tribe I've heard of, they will make a ritual to purify the blood, where I see it as some kind of vaccine really, where they will scratch their own skin using bones, stone, charcoal and plants in a sacred mixture which I think it's a way to create the correct immune response by carefully introducing whatever is on the skin into the bloodstream. (Literally do not try this, it is done as a ritual and I don't know what's the secret herbs or ratios they use) 2. Making fire: this I'm not 100% sure but the tribes I have seen also have routines that help them dry they will choose specific wood types that is relatively dry in the middle, the wood hardens even more in a pervious fire and locks the moisture outside. They will whack and clear out plants by cutting and burning until the soil is just earth around the living space, that will make the area dry(er). That will help to keep your body dry also. They are actually very hygienic, and will wash themselves very often every single day, during the hottest time of the day, sweat is kinda oily and lingers in your skin, water just runs down and evaporates. 3. They don't waste a lot of time making clothes, but they know every plant, root and wood and animal part they can use and they will sometimes spend days drying leaves, preparing mats, making rope, creating arrows because it is so vital. 4. For mosquito bites there are a few things that you can do with plants but a lot of it is just pure genetics, my mom is European but I'm mixed: mosquito bites barely affect me but if it itches, you just slap the skin, never scratch with dirty nails. But we also have vampire moths and bigger flies that bite too, those will hurt a lot more. Still slap the skin. Take away: outside of the wilderness people think traditions or some habits as irrelevant or stupid, I have yet to see an Amazonian tradition that is just devoid if purpose, a lot of rituals they do and traditions they have make a lot of sense when you analyze it. Even things seen as decorative might have a health purpose. Who is to say what they are doing isn't helping with health, like paints they use and taking hairs away might help keep them bug free.

I just got back from the jungles of India and I have to say the jungle is still very much awake and alive at night. Elephants are terrifying when they’re disgruntled. At night during the monsoon storms they would make this really loud growl noise and you could hear them smashing trees over. You couldn’t see them, you could only hear them. I’ll never forget the incredible sounds of the jungle at night. It is something everyone should experience once in their lives.

When hes describing the wildlife of the Amazon and specifically, learning the eye shines of different animals at night, there just something so resonant about that. I have no experience with such things, but something about hearing his stories, makes me think im missing an important component of what it means to be human. Connecting with nature and the world around you like that is something that i feel we should all experience at least once in our lives. We are so removed from the natural cycles and systems of this planet that we forget how vulnerable we really are as living creatures. Mother nature is indifferent to our existence and that something we need to remember. How many of us would truly be able to survive if society actually collapsed and we had to survive on our own? The cold truth is that most of us would die within weeks-months.

Being able to survive by yourself in the wilderness is a very enjoyable thing. When I was a kid, my older brother used to take me to the woods with him to hunt and shit, he taught me a lot about the plants and animals from our region and how to live out there with very basic equipment. I grew older, moved to the city, got a degree and now I have a job as a software engineer and I love anime girls, my standard life depends a lot on the internet and electronics but every once in a while, I go back to the woods to spend a weekend or something by myself, hunting and collecting stuff... It makes me remember that even though modern commodities are great, I don't really need them to keep myself alive and man I swear that's an awesome feeling.

In the Colombian Amazon this year 3 children (1 child in arms) went lost after a small plane crashed in the middle of the jungle, the pilot, the mother and if I remember correctly an uncle of the children died immediately. The children miraculously survived the crash as they were in the very back of the plane, which suffered less damage. Indigenous people from the area found the crash plane and from there began a historical search with the Colombian military and volunteers. The soldiers were leaving food and messages in the jungle so that the children would have more chances of surviving. The children were missing for 40 days and in the end they were all found alive. These children were born and raised in the jungle, they knew very well how to survive, but still it was a miracle that even the child in arms survived after more than 1 month. There is a lot of speculation regarding this case, it's even say that the children were hiding on purpose from the military since they were afraid that they were guerrillas instead that can also be found in the area. There are many missing parts in this story and i hope in the future they can tell world how they managed to survived, but definitely in the end the most important thing is that they are alive.

Im brazilian from São Paulo, i went to the Amazon for 2 times for fishing. I met a biologist who told me 5 things: - Never sleep on the ground, only on a tree or something. - Never swim at night. - Light a campfire, it keeps big animals away. - Beware of wasps, they dont stop chasing. - NEVER pee inside water, candiru fish is evil as hell

I gotta say I’ve been living in the PNW without air conditioning and I’ve started gardening I’ve been going on hour or two walks a day. I am still in a super urban environment and I am learning how to code for games I am at the pinical of human technology but these simple acts of tending to plants, exploring my local area and every day feeling the weather and the days heat up to 90 degrees without air con has been great for me. Even just a step back from living in the peak of modernity has been amazing for my mental health. I plan to be an urban gardener to give food and experience to my local community.

[@badlaamaurukehu]

My thing was when he was on about the snakes. People who live in the wild don't have much time to identify potential life or death threats before acting economically. Not really a critique of this guy so much as it seems many people from some urban environs like to attribute superpowers to people in some places that if those same people were their neighbors and looked like most people in their own community, they would despise their existance. But only from a distance.

A gps can last a month easy. You don’t need it running 24/7. You turn it on and off as needed. Also a single portable battery pack, say 20000mah would suffice as backup for the gps. This guys full of shit, anyone with any ounce of sense would have gps, I don’t believe he didn’t.

Amazon (the company) should start a program to educate people who want to support the efforts in the rainforests and have a constant presence there to put off potential land clearances and poachers. They could profit from it whilst doing amazing work and even make a show with yearly seasons and a documentary each year. Profiting, creating jobs and supporting the amazing work people do in these places.

Either listen to the whole podcast or when he was on Lex’s so you understand where he lives in the jungle. Also, how does that set off alarm bells when tribes don’t use gps or anything? It can be done.

I'm from Brazil, jaguars (we call it onça) will indeed avoid you in normal circumstances. But if a male is chasing a female in heat, or a female is nursing youngs, you'd better not take them lightly. Also, no matter how tall or strong you are, never turn your back to an adult jaguar.

Just a follow up about this one, “A black panther is the melanistic colour variant of the leopard and the jaguar. Black panthers of both species have excess black pigments, but their typical rosettes are also present. They have been documented mostly in tropical forests, with black leopards in Africa and Asia, and black jaguars in South America”.
