traps
ballista:
dang... thats a pretty good idea. CODYU LUNDIN lived in the wild for two years, a bit of a hippie, but he has some great survival traps. my grampa tought me one, AND no string is reuired. simpily dig a hole, sharpen stakes with a knive (possibly flintknapped knife) and put them douwnward in the ground. the snare, in my mind, is a more reliable trap, for it keeps the animal alive, thus keeping the meat fresh- but ive heard stories about people's rabbits being stolen by other preators from the animals distress calls, its a mix of ideas. a russian kid i know can make a few sapling snares within a few minutes, but to be 100 percent honest, im not sure how much of an anvantage they have on the humble snare ;D
