How to Survive in the Jungle

Last week in our series ‘Life in the Jungle’ we looked at the some of the most fascinating jungles in the world. In this week’s feature, we’re looking at how to survive in the jungle. Alana Harris gives us some ideas.  

When you’re in the jungle, you need to leave all your luxuries at home! That means, forget your mobile phone, your favourite coffee, your chocolate bars, and your CD player. When you’re in the jungle, you need only four things – water, food, shelter, and fire. You can find all of these easily, but you must know what to look for.

Let’s start with water. Even though there’s a lot of water in most tropical environments, you may not find it immediately. One way to discover it is to follow animals and birds, as they need liquid regularly. Insects can also be a good sign, because they usually build their nests near water. However, don’t only look for rivers. You can also find water in plants such as vines, roots, and palm trees.

You can usually find a lot of food in the jungle, but you must be happy to eat things you wouldn’t normally want to, for example, insects. However, you need to know the difference between those you can eat and those that are poisonous, so start reading about them now! For cooking and for warmth, collect dry firewood, leaves, and grass. Then make fire using dry sticks – or take a box of matches or a lighter with you!

The type of shelter you need depends on the weather and the kind of animals that are in the jungle. Malaria-carrying mosquitoes and other insects can be very dangerous, so protect yourself against bites. If you don’t have any insect repellent, try putting mud on your skin.  

Of course, if you’re lost in the jungle, you’ll want to get home again. The sun and stars can help you find your way, so you might want to study astronomy. Alternatively, when you find a river, follow it. People usually live near rivers, so if you walk along the river bank, eventually you’ll find a village.

Example: This is the first article in the series. F
