Where to Find Food

When it comes to finding food in a survival situation, there are many different ways in which one can accomplish this task. One of the simplest ways is of course if you run across a store or another individual who will sell or trade supplies. If you are in a situation where you do not have one of these luxuries at hand, then you will need to know a few things. Always pay attention to the environment and your surroundings. The moment that you forget the environment you are in is when you start losing it all.

​

Oftentimes finding high grounds to survey the area can let you know if there are watering holes, lakes, rivers, or streams near by. All of these places are areas in which you will find animals and other forms of creatures looking for water. Wherever there is water it is a safe bet to say there is some form of food nearby. You can also look for large flocks of birds to see if you can find where they are landing.

​

Usually birds will land in trees that are fruit bearing or near fruit bearing trees. This means the likelihood of finding nuts and berries that are edible increase dramatically. If you see animal Trails following them can also lead you to food sources. Remember food in the wild is not like buying food in the store. You may have to work for it sometimes even fight for it. When you do find sources for food and make sure that you have enough with you to get you to the next food source.
