Program Topics:

🦊 Wildlife Tracks & Sign
Understanding animal tracks and signs is key to uncovering the wildlife around you, knowing what animals are present, what they’re doing, and when they were there. You’ll learn to interpret these signs with skills including:

  • Understanding track morphology and characteristics
  • Reading gaits and interpreting associated behaviors
  • Aging tracks and signs
  • Following animal paths and trailing wildlife
  • Recognizing scat, pellets, predation remains, and other animal signs like feeding, bedding, and marking

🐦 Bird Language & Animal Communication
In hunter-gatherer cultures, people could interpret bird vocalizations and animal communications to gain insights about the landscape. You’ll develop this skill to increase situational awareness through:

  • Distinguishing between baseline and non-baseline behaviors
  • Deciphering alarm calls and identifying aerial threats
  • Tracking ground predators and knowing their movements
  • Concealing your presence to approach wildlife
  • Understanding silence in the forest and how to use it to your advantage
  • Interpreting the complex communication web between animals

🏕️ Wilderness Survival
Equip yourself with survival skills essential for handling emergency situations in the wilderness. You’ll learn techniques similar to those used by scouts and pioneers, enabling you to thrive in any outdoor environment.

  • Avoiding and preparing for survival situations
  • Starting fire, finding and purifying water, and building shelters
  • Navigating with a compass and topographical map
  • Methods for finding your way out or signaling for help
  • Staying warm and avoiding heat exhaustion or dehydration
  • Making cordage, tying knots, and safe knife use

🌱 Foraging for Wild Plants
A true naturalist knows how to find nutritious wild foods, going beyond basic plant identification. You’ll learn to recognize valuable plant resources that can be found in your backyard, nearby green spaces, or wilderness areas.

  • Identifying staple foods used by Indigenous cultures
  • Locating desired plants in appropriate habitats
  • Using plant characteristics to identify them accurately
  • Avoiding dangerous look-alikes that are poisonous
  • Knowing the right time of year to harvest particular species
  • Preparing and processing wild foods for safe consumption

  • Setting up campsites and choosing safe overnight locations

What Nature Enthusiasts Are Saying: 

Keith Farrar ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"This is without question one of the most comprehensive and detailed programs available. I have been studying bushcraft, wilderness survival, and general outdoor skills for over 25 years, and teaching those skills for over 15 years. I was very pleased with the incredible detail... the program will allow the student to become very confident in their knowledge."

Adam Brightman ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I did not realize how successful I became with the content of this program until I took one of my fellow environmental police officers with me. As I explained to him what I was looking at with the deer tracks, he simply looked at me in amazement and said, 'Where did you learn all of this?' It was at this moment that I realized I had obtained a skillset that a senior game warden did not possess."

Martin Ack ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Bird language was mind-blowing for me. I learned how birds communicate using vocalizations, movements, body language, and flight patterns to identify the location of dangerous predators. It will change your outdoor experiences forever!"

Grace Harris ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The foraging program gave me so many opportunities to grow my skills in an outdoor field. After taking it, I've shown people all sorts of plants and what you can do with them... people enjoy it so much when I tell them what delicious plants you can find in the wild!"
