Woniya on Jordan's Moose Kill, Alone Season 6

[@hobojordo]

Ah thanks Woniya! The shot of me saying thank you, and giving a huge hug to the moose didn't make it on there, and the countless times I expressed utmost gratitude....I appreciate your time and your great explanation of the situation - it shows you know what your talking about and your such a good teacher! Nice woven rabbit scarf )))... (I was glad it was a male moose so as not to affect the population in any significant way...)

Jordan Jonas good job buddy I subscribed

[@BuckskinRevolution]

You're so welcome Jordan. Just telling it like I see it! I am all too aware of the great many things we experience out there that don't make the cut and all the things the viewers are likely not aware of. I believed that of you for sure and it's good to hear it! And yeah, that scarf was the best thing ever! haha, i had cranberry juice all over my nose in the footage of me making it! didn't realize it til after i filmed it! glad it wasn't too obvious!

[@hobojordo]

@@BuckskinRevolution hahah... i actually went after i got the moose and took all my (hundred or so) snares down and found a rabbit still alive in one, who i let go...it was a pretty funny moment with it... i thought that might get on the show ))

People who are being critical of you, aren't hunters. They have no idea how many hours we dedicate to honing our skills especially bow hunting. People who spend that much time in the woods, love the woods, and the creatures in them.

Can we all appreciate how she validated the hunting abilities of her competitor? She NEVER down Jordan for his choices. THIS IS SPORTSMANSHIP!!!! WE ALL NEED TO LEARN SOMETHING FROM HER!!! Thank you so much Woniya!

thanks Laci. I saw us all as participants on an amazing journey of our own. The concept of winning and losing and competition was not where i was coming from out there. Would seem silly not to acknowledge the skills and knowledge of another on their journey!

Grateful for you sharing your wisdom on this. I was so rooting for you to win Season 6, and totally respected your decision to control your exit. Jordan was indeed a skilled and worthy competitor and I was glad to see him make it to the end. I loved seeing you and the other amazing women make it so far in the competition-you are great role models and brought well articulated feminine strength to the forefront. Looking for ways to support you all so you can reap some more rewards from your experience. I do appreciate how much wisdom you seemed to have gained in spite of (or perhaps because of) not having the financial win. Blessings to your incredible spirit!

Woniya, easily the nicest shelter built on the show. And that says a lot. Those double thick walls with insulation were a thing of beauty!

I knew it was gonna be her or Jordan as the victor. She is super smart and really knows her shit. If she could have snared a few more hares she would have won.

yo her shelter was hella impressive. she easily had the best one that season, no question.

[@Nice-sl3md]

@@Jerlemi2 How would she have won? Jordan still had well over a hundred pounds of meat with lots of fat when he won. The wolverine only got the kidney fat, but there was a ton of fat all over the moose. The producers edited the show to make it look like they were neck and neck.

[@Jerlemi2]

Nic E. Just going by what the episode showed. Jordan lost a lot of weight and was likely gonna get tapped due to his health being in danger. Yeah I saw later that Jordan actually had caught a ton of fish and the show edited it out, but that was after I wrote that post.

[@vincentdc211]

Killing an animal for food to prevent starvation, okay. But this is a designed game show that puts people in the middle of nowhere and in a situation they need to kill for food....It's not like they're really in this situation in reality. So, in reality, they don't need to hunt and kill; this is done for show and money.

i wasn't disturbed at all, what he did was survive. our ancestors did the exact same thing he did. a lot of people don't realize that. the ones that disliked what Jordan did, think milk comes from a container, steak comes from a store. and plants come from a supermarket.

As a hunter who turned vegan for 3 years, I will always support hunters because they truly respect the animals they kill. I wish people would understand industrial farming is our biggest problem for pollution and unnatural suffering. Thank you for the video!

[@lukerichins1730]

I wish more people understood this. Switching to a (mostly) venison and wild-game only diet has been awesome for my Wife and I. It also feels good to limit my carbon footprint

[@Triple_J.1]

There are 7 billion people on earth. There are at most maybe 1/4 million Elk or 2-3 million deer in any given state. Its not possible to feed the world with wild game. Wild game can support the worlds population from 15,000ya. Which is a couple of million people, at most. "Factory" farming is the only way to provide quality animal based protein for everyone, especially impoverished people. The countries that dis-allow factory farming by law (India), or by being degenerate nations (Africa), all have overwhelming malnutrition of their average population. And those two examples are 1.3B & 1B people.

[@geraldcazden7102]

That's so true my friend. I'm a former hunter. Now, a vegetarian. Factory farming in a spiritual abomination, and he'll on earth for our fellow creatures

[@BPoweredLove]

It never occurred to me that people watching Alone (many of these people who should NOT be watching a show like this) would question the moose kill and not worry about any of the other kills simply because the show depicted the moose kill because Jordan filmed it. Hey, people.. what about all the squirrels and rabbits that were snared and were found the next day frozen? Do you REALLY think these animals died instantly from being snared? Come on...

[@GaerHampton]

Great video! You make many great points. Until you brought it up, I had never thought about the issue of where animals actually feel pain. I'm a CT scan technologist, and we often times assist our radiologists in performing CT guided biopsies. As soon as you mentioned how often times internal organs don't have much sensation, I thought about how when we do lung biopsies, the only part that causes the patient discomfort is the initial needle stick in the skin and external tissue, and then when the biopsy needle pokes through the lining of the lung (the pleura). Once inside the lung, the patient doesn't feel the needle. Other organ biopsies are similar in that usually only the more external tissue needs to be numbed up, while the organs feel little. Yes, what it takes for us to be able to put a bite of meat in our mouths isn't a pretty process, but I do feel that wild game, hunted respectfully, is probably the prettiest way that this can be done. Way too many people these days seem to think that meat is just somehow magically created in some back refrigerator at the local grocery store. I've heard several people complain over the years that they, "can't eat meat off of a bone". I just have to laugh at such out-of-touch thinking, while being disturbed at the same time. I'm pretty sure that these people would be utterly shocked to see that their chicken nugget not only grew on a bone, but that it also came from a chicken that lived its short life in a crowded, filthy, stinking, factory farm building. Or I'd love to see their faces when they see the cow that their hamburger came from, in a feed lot pin, literally almost covered from head to hoof in feces. Yep, meat procurement isn't pretty, but most folks these days are so insulated from where their food comes from that they don't have clue. At any rate, great thoughts! And I'm looking forward to seeing how the remainder of Alone season 6 shakes out! -Gareth

[@reedfee3570]

Thank you Woniya. Nicely explained. Death is never easy. Having been in similar situations several times I absolutely agree Jordan did the right thing by waiting for the moose to die! It must be challenging to listen to so much internet chatter not backed up by experience. Thanks for educateing those who are willing to listen.

[@elementalsound7186]

Sitting here feeling like shit in quarantine and just randomly stumbled across your season. You are so incredibly inspirational to me Woniya. I'm so proud of you for getting as far as you did. Thank you for representing what women can do, and how our approach to things can get us just as far as brute force. Your comments about denying your femininity really resonated with me. I hope you are living a happy life :)

[@BuckskinRevolution]

thanks Lauren! It was so important t to me to be a good example for other women! I hope you feel better soon!

[@bradhall4274]

Woniya, after watching Alone, I thought your answer to Jordan killing the moose would have been extremely different than what you stated. Your explanation of what Jordan did, how wolves kill, and how far removed most people are from harvesting their own meat was the most spot on answer I have ever heard in public. I hunt and have had to try and explain it to non hunters. I will use your example going forward. I wish you all the best as you go forward. Thanks.

[@BuckskinRevolution]

thank you Brad. Curious what you would have though would be different. I made a birch bark moose call first thing and was out there doing my best to call in moose too, but that didn't make the edits. Wish I had had moose in my zone for sure! Glad to hear you found my synopsis right on target!

[@jaimeastin]

Thank you!!! As an ethical hunter, so many people do not take the time to hear us out. Your response is very well said and you being you I am sure is more relatable to people who do not hunt. All of us want a quick clean kill... The joy is not in the kill, but in the harvest. We give thanks.

thanks Jaime!

[@craftinganewworld1674]

I thought the way he killed the moose was perfect for his situation. Jordan is obviously an experienced hunter and a really level headed guy, unless you frack with his fat.

I’m from Texas, but these two were my favorites!! As a woman, I kind of wanted to see this amazing woman with so much skill win. I was happy with Jordan winning because he was absolutely deserving.

[@dannyjacobs6734]

Great explination! I have archery hunted for 40+ years, and I immediately knew that he hit one lung and the liver. Both lungs, the moose would have been dead in a matter of a minute or two. The deep red blood indicates a liver hit, which is very common if the animal is slightly quartering to you. One lung isn't exactly fatal as both lungs, but a liver shot is fatal. He absolutely did hit one lung, which is indicated by the bubbles. How Jordan handled the recovery is exactly what I would have done it. A follow-up shot could have ended up with a lost dead moose. As for those saying the moose suffered? He lived his entire life free, and died much more humane than mauled by a bear, which is natural. Great show and my hats off to you guys!

[@machinesandthings7121]

So true.

[@l.h.tnguyen4916]

This is incorrect. 1) Blood that leaves the lung once oxygenated will be deeply red. It does not indicate a liver hit. The color is indicative of the organ uptake of oxygen. 2) You have no idea which way the animal quartering you. It is possible he hit the liver but he could have not. One lung shot is fatal because the pool will eventually pool in the lung and you will drown in your own blood, not to mention the blood loss.

[@merica4564]

Respect! Was rooting for you or Jordan. I’m glad to see you two hit top 2. You guys definitely were the strongest “players” in my opinion on any “Alone” season!

Jordan did a great job on JRE explaining why he didn’t want to sneak up on it and try hitting it again. From over 20 yards his recurve bow begins to loose velocity and the arrow begins to arc ... he was over 50 yards from that moose and did not have a good shot available to him. He also explained that another arrow could spook the moose and cause it to run again, but having already bled out substantially there would be no blood trail to follow and the animal would be lost.

[@navajasrs2402]

I am so encouraged by the fact that men and women like you and Jordan still exist. Thank you for your effort, skill and time.

This was a great season of the show and you two were by far my favorite contestants. I would have been so happy to see either of you win. When I knew it was down to you 2, I was happy that one of you would win, but sad that I would have to see one of you "lose". However, Woniya, you're exit was my favorite in the show's history: both joyful and bittersweet. -Powerful and graceful; very "you". - Certainly not a loss of anything other than some money that wasn't yet yours. This video of you coming to support of one of your "competitors" just reinforces that the way you where portrayed on the show was is in fact reality. This video should be shown to anyone who doesn't understand winning/losing AND anyone who doesn't understand hunting. I will look forward to sharing your season of the show and your videos like this one with my daughters when they are old enough. Thankyou for all you have shared and given.

Late to the game, but this video is very well thought out and presented. Really appreciate your perspective. In the past 3-4 years my family has moved to an (almost) exclusively wild game diet. It's incredible how much more healthy the meat is for you, how nutritious it is, and how that "meat sweat"/"sunk in the gut" feeling from high fat domestic meats does not happen with venison. I also appreciate knowing that our meat comes from the lives of only an animal or two per year, and that the animals I eat had the chance to love a beautiful, wild life. Again thank you!

When I saw him build a ladder the way he did I was amazed. When I saw him wait instead of stalk the moose I recognized his knowledge of big game hunting. I am a hunter and a fisherman I have always respected the game I've killed and admired their beauty. I also have a bit of sadness when doing so, but I make sure that nothing is wasted. That's just to let you know that I know what I'm talking about so you know that there were people watching who recognized that you were good. No, actually better than good, you were fantastic!

Thanks Woniya for your very thoughtful and informative comments, I learned a lot. You have a nice way of communicating your opinions, without making the viewer defensive or angry. I really enjoyed Season 6. I really thought that location was the most challenging of all the Alone locations. It was nice to see you and Jordan lasting the longest out there. You were my favorites. You both had the right mindsets, skills, and temperament to live in that environment. Btw, I give you the Gold medal for shelter construction, that was an amazing structure, well designed and expertly built. I am happy to have found your channel and look forward to following your content. I hope you are doing well and surviving COVID, which seems to be another survivor challenge we are all experiencing these days.

Love your perspective Woniya! Rooted for you throughout the show, so happy to have found your channel. You are an inspiration.

You go Girl. Living in the interior of Alaska. Alone, in a cabin without water I’m deeply thankful that you take the time to explain to people who lost a healthy connection with nature, meat processing a long time ago. I was very impressed to see your skills out there. ... and you are right it’s time that a woman wins it. For me you are the one who could have don’t it. I know how cold and dark the winter are in the arctic because I live not far away from it. You did so well. Take care.

Two Natal Yods You are kidding, right? Women have the same chance to win that like men. What exactly can men do that women can’t do there? In fact many women at the show were tougher than their male competitors. Hysterical crying after 6 weeks and calling out for wifie is not exactly winning material.

[@susanshanks2407]

I am so glad I found you today. You explained everything so eloquently. Thank-you for this wonderful insight of what goes on behind the scenes. Thank-you again.

[@jalanwb7469]

Woniya! We loved your perspective on the show. Way to break things down on this video. Including your perspective on editing and respecting animals. So much love and respect!

[@dtenor201]

You are AWESOME! All 3 ladies on season 6 were truly incredible. You had the best shelter and mind game. Jordan had the perfect combo of experience. You were both creative and adapted to your obstacles. Maybe you can get on a future season? I'd bet on you.

[@emmotors]

Season 6 is the first season of Alone we have watched and we were amazed by your knowledge, your wisdom and your soulfulness! We were rooting for you and had hoped to see you take it! However you did in so many ways and we appreciate getting to know you in a significant way. You are a remarkable person!

[@BuckskinRevolution]

aw, thanks so much!

[@lesleyshulenburg7356]

You are so well spoken. I could listen to you all day. My kids and I loved your shelter. It looked so cozy.

[@JEFFALLENOFFTHEGRIDIRON]

Thank you for sharing and representing the hunter in a responsible and honourable light. Well shared.

[@RamshackleHomesteadKeithandJen]

So well said!! All extremely accurate and logical statements!! Our greatest respect for you , Jordan and the rest of the season 6 participants.

[@atari_rx]

Woniya, you’re so wise and have such a beautiful soul. I enjoyed watching your journey and was rooting you on. Your message in the last episode was so on point, expressing the human need for self love. The fact that you mentioned you wanted to take care of yourself on your birthday was so humbling and absolutely amazing. Wishing you so much blessings and good health in life.

[@BuckskinRevolution]

thank you so much

[@nissaflanagan8073]

I have never commented on a KZbin video before but Woniya you rock! I was truly impressed by your performance on the show and the unreal amount of skillsets you possess. Truly is a shock that (although you didn't mention (at least at length) why you weren't married with kids because you seem like you would not only be great friend but also wife and mom. Hoping they offer (and you go) on another alone competition. P.SW

[@BuckskinRevolution]

thank you Nissa, honored to be the your first KZbin comment!

[@gtfirewalker]

You are a winner in my eyes. I cried when you left. Your connection to the experience and lace of gratitude was extraordinary.

[@AN-sx2iy]

I love your explanations!!! You are such an inspiration and I love your respect for animals. I was rooting you on and was in tears when you left. I hope life becomes easier for you, you made watching this show so enjoyable.

[@Jerlemi2]

You are absolutely a wonderful human being. I wish you the very best in life. Thank you for being who you are.

[@BuckskinRevolution]

as, thank you

[@ColleenW2019]

I only just saw the final episode last night and was heartbroken you had to leave, but what else could you do? Money can't take the place of thriving health in the long run. So glad you talked about the moose kill. He absolutely did the right thing, and it's always hard to witness the death of a beautiful animal. But as you talked about with the slaughterhouses, that is a far worse death than any skilled hunter could cause. Hunting is the THE most humane way of procuring meat. Far more big game starve to death than are ever taken by hunters. Who would want that suffering?? Wolf kills are gruesome indeed, but it's part of the circle of life. Thank you for this thoughtful and well-spoken video.

[@LauraBakerPhD]

Grateful for you sharing your wisdom on this. I was so rooting for you to win Season 6, and totally respected your decision to control your exit. Jordan was indeed a skilled and worthy competitor and I was glad to see him make it to the end. I loved seeing you and the other amazing women make it so far in the competition-you are great role models and brought well articulated feminine strength to the forefront. Looking for ways to support you all so you can reap some more rewards from your experience. I do appreciate how much wisdom you seemed to have gained in spite of (or perhaps because of) not having the financial win. Blessings to your incredible spirit!

[@lindab8078]

Thank you for such a good video Woniya! Great explanation of the process involved in killing and processing an animal and the gratitude for the life that was taken. My husband and I have watched every season and we are in awe of everyone's skills. As the seasons progress we feel like the bar just keeps going higher in terms of skills. It is always hard to see someone go home and we wish there we 2nd and 3rd place prizes because everyone works so hard to get to that point and have given up a lot to be there. We were hoping you would be the first woman to win, but when we saw Jordan catch that fish it felt like the odds were against you being able to carry on. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. Your compassion, patience, teaching and great attitude made you a wonderful contestant. I didn't realize you had a channel so hitting that subscribe button and going back to catch up.

[@leojoseph6385]

Great and level headed discussion on an epic milestone hunt on Alone! Jordan's accomplishment was impressive and I'm glad you're taking the time to discuss it's aspects, and give it proper tribute!

[@scott2690]

I very recently discovered your channel here and really appreciate your perspective, and maybe just as much: the time you take to explain it and the various skills you feature in your videos.

[@jeremys2029]

I don't think anyone could have said this any better. Thank you Woniya.

[@atari_rx]

Woniya and Jordan were both my favorite top 2 people. I wanted either of them to win and I’m so glad that they both ended up as top 2. Both of them were so humble and grateful with their time in the arctic. None of them expressed arrogance or saying they were going to win. They just kept on going and worked with what they got. This was a great season to watch.

[@kevinpilon11]

Dang, hitting us with some straight up reason. Loved you on the show, you were completely epic.

[@thesportingprofessor3011]

Thank you for this video. As an ethical hunter and angler, your explanation was wonderful.

[@philb8338]

I agree with you 100%. I just rewatched season 6 and enjoyed every episode. You guys all are warriors and besides the entertainment value of the show, it exhibits the endurance and suffering humans (and particularly yourself) can endure. When I retire from the work-a-day rat race I want to spend more time in the woods and you and all the participants of the Alone series are a huge inspiration.

[@susanam.826]

I just finished watching season 6. You two were my favorite, I was rooting for you, you were freaking amazing! Thank you for this video.

[@jessicahuckins4525]

Greetings from Wyoming. I loved this video and your explanation. I agree with you 100% on all topics. I’m a brand new fan! I’m excited to learn more about your skills!

[@Thekatedelaney]

I just finished season 6 today. So much respect for you Woniya!! You’re an amazing survivalist!! 💕

[@BuckskinRevolution]
