Saturday Survival Theater: Survival In North Temperate Regions
Cold War era bushcraft instructional
This film was made in 1955 for air crews during the Cold War. It’s a VERY basic primer on how to procure food in the north temperate region which is basically from the Tropic of Cancer (the middle of Central America) to the Arctic Circle (the top of Canada) so my readers are probably smack dap in the middle of it.
One caveat in the middle somewhere they talk about eating crickets. Don’t do this unless you cook them until they’re burnt. Crickets carry parasites. If crickets are on the menu make them crunchy with fire, and lots of it.
