Got an 85%. It said I wouldn't make it in the tropics. Good thing I never plan on going anywhere tropical.

70% - I don't know a shark from a guppy so I better stay away from the water!

Ok, I took it again and this time I got 100%. Despite this score, it said I got the question about the coral snake wrong. How the heck do you score a 100% and still get one wrong.

Red and yellow, kill a fellow.
Red and black, friend of Jack.

As for the whole 100% and still miss one...must be one of the new public school tests. We can't "damage a child's self-esteem" by telling them they got a poor grade.

80%. "Survivorman" v. "Man v. Wild" are two totally different shows. Man v. wild seems to be more focused on finding civilization in order to be rescued and Bear is always on the move. Survivorman just has to survive for a week with whatever situation he starts with. I sometimes find myself saying, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!?!?!" when watching Survivorman. Stroud always seems to waste a lot of time on a task that doesn't really improve his situation very much. He also cooks E V E R Y T H I N G from a single tiny cricket to a single tiny berry. Either way, I love watching both shows.

Anyone interested on boning up on Survival, there are tons of books out there, and resources available on the net. The best way to up your odds in survival in the wild is preparation.

THIS is probably the best place to start.
