Our group wasn’t touristic but people who wanted to understand Hunter-Gatherer culture and how our ancestors used to live. Joel and others believe the way to help the Hadza i...

Flintlock Bison Harvest in Wyoming
มุมมอง 73K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a meat harvest not a hunt. I purchased this animal and did the dirty work myself, for all those that trash talk it beware I got my hands dirty and got my meat from the source :). We headed out to Wyoming to harvest a few Bison on a ranch. Hosted by Josh Kirk from History channel Mountain Men. I used my Lyman Great Plains rifle in 54 caliber.

    I just learned there are fish… We just walked out and saw dead ones on the beach. They come from the rivers and die in the lake! Also to be careful bringing dogs and swimming in it there are some bacteria’s.. and research the dying birds there too.

    The main concern I have with this video is that it looks too cold to be working on this primitive fishing set. It concerns me that you are out working in the cold and it is not safe. Cavemen understood this well and never worked in the cold. It concerns me that you are not aware of this fact. The most important primitive survival skill is following in the steps of the cavemen of old and it concerns me that it seems you are not following in their footsteps in this way. It seems far too cold to be working at the time that you filmed this film. Please check your facts next time and try to follow on the steps of the great cavemen of old such as George Washington and Bob Donoho.
