Survival Projects
Gabby’s paragraph:
Within Missouri, there are many ways in which a society could live and thrive. Home to over two hundred fish species, four hundred diverse bird breeds, and seventy mammal types that roam the land, swim through the bodies of water, or soar throughout the clear skies. Along with consuming the meat for nourishment, the leftovers, or scraps, of animals such as fish, could be used as bait for traps to capture other creatures which could be used for labor, as a food source, commodities in which could be traded or sold with territories such as Grimm, and/or other necessities needed in a typical society. Furthermore, with the bones of captured fish, birds, and other mammals, they can be grinded up to help make …show more content…
Besides the obvious reason of utilizing the river as a water source to eliminate dehydration, it gives our community the advantage to manipulate the bodies of water nearby to our advantage. With that being said, animals as well as our community will exploit from the nearby animals by harnessing their power for labor, their meat as a food source, or their sturdiness as transportation depending on the animal. Alongside food, rivers can also provide our society with an irrigation system for our crops. If a canal type system is constructed, the canal will allow water to flow to our crops, giving our community the opportunity to effectively distribute water to our crops. Not only will the river water assist our harvest, but it will supply our animals with drinking water. Having rivers within close proximity will be a dependable resource for our civilization to exploit from as long as it is managed …show more content…
While it will take about 46 days to travel on foot, assuming we will walk for 8 hours a day, with determination and sufficient supplies, the journey will go rather smoothly. Some things we must take into account are the distance of 467 miles, the journey through the dead zone, the possibility of bandits or hostile societies, or the lack of sufficient supplies. Ideally, we will be walking 8-10 hours a day, preparing food and sleeping places, eating and sleeping, then waking up to walk another 8-10 hours. We must also be prepared to take shifts at night to protect the camp from hostile groups or wild animals. This routine will be continued until the destination is reached.
One of the main reasons we will make the journey is the forest environment. Forests host a variety of resources, the main one being wood. Wood is vital to a new society, as it provides fuel for fire, building materials for shelters, and material for crafting miscellaneous items. The main things we will need to make are shelters, weapons, and tools, all of which can be made out of wood. While certain wooden tools can be insufficient in the long run, they will provide us with the necessary materials to create better tools. The shelters made out of wood will prove to be long lasting
