PIGEON Catch, Cook, Clean! | Primitive Spit Roast in Survival Challenge

In day 7 of our survival challenge, we catch, clean and cook pigeon from a farm. We cook the pigeon primitively over an open fire on a spit using materials in the woods. I’ll also try my luck at fishing for brook trout to see if we can survive the ultimate survival challenge. This isn’t about just waiting out the clock, but rather to balance out our calories.

I will show you how to pluck the birds and clean them so they are ready for grilling over an open fire using just a stick. I’ll do the same and cook the fish over fire with a very simple method. Bush cooking or bushcraft cooking should be done using very simple and easily accessible means.

The Wilderness Living Challenge is not a “survival challenge,” but more like a test of the modern hunter gatherer to sustain himself on wild foods only. We will weight ourselves at the start of the challenge and weight out at the end. If we lose any weight at all, we lose the challenge!

Follow along as we struggle to get wild foods!

I am joined by Zach Fowler on his home turf in Maine, USA in the spring.

Here, we plan to do Season 5 of The Wilderness Living Challenge. The goal of the challenge is to gain or maintain our body weight eating only the wild food we can collect on site using whatever means necessary.

Winning the Wilderness Living Challenge is harder than it seems.

Season 5: Maine Spring, takes place in Maine, USA with coastal food priorities including fish, clams, crab, seaweed, groundhog, pigeon, turkey, dandelion, cattail, and whatever else is edible! Nothing is off the menu, if it’s edible, we’ll eat it.

We make use of all the resources in this challenge to meet the demands for calories imposed by the human body!
