Survival Question

Survival Questions!

I was answering a set of questions in thread, and number ten inspired me to make this game. The question was: 10) If you were going to spend one year on a desert isaland, what three things would you bring and why?

Well I answered this question, and I thought: "Why not make a bunch of Survival Questions?" So, here it is, the new SQ or Survival Questions Game! 

Here is how it works: 

I will make a set of Survival Questions, and you answer them. Feel free to make your own sets too. I will be adding more every once and a while (for now on this thread). So here is my first set:

 1. What 3 items would you choose to bring if you were stuck in the Amazon Rainforest for one full year?

Answer: Hm... a tarp (really needed for shelter out there when it rains!), a pocket knife to cut things, and matches to help start the fire since you could not do it with wood because it would be all wet. Water and Food would not be needed though I do not think...

 

2. With your three chosen items for the Amazon Rainforest, you were dropped off, and was told that no one would come for you until a year from then. But that same day you were setting up a place to sleep and... a GIANT spider (posionous) appears right in front of you! What do you do?

Answer: 1st SCREAM! 2nd, back away quickly and... set up camp somewhere else.

 

3. What would you do if you were nearly asleep and heard a growling noise just below you on the forest floor and you looked down and saw a tiger (I do believe tigers are in the Amazon Rainforest, if not then it is a Panther below you)?

Answer: Grab my stuff, and climb up the tree a little, but what if it could climb too? Then I am soup!

These questions go in order, and I will create more later! Have fun answering them!

back to the Inkwell

1. A tent, pepper spray, and a knife for kutting things.

2. Try not to makke any sound or movement and back away to camp at another place.

3. Slowly walk away because tigers, yes they do have them in the Amazon Rainforest, can climb trees. If it began to pounce on me, I would use my pepper spray. I heard that pepper spray can keep a bear away!

1. A tent, (obviously,) a hatchet, (for chopping wood, hammering, hunting, skinning, etc.) and a gun (as a backup to my hatchet. Also, I might be able to start fires, or lure food or help with its sound.)

2. I'd slice it with my hatchet. (It would be a waste of bullets to shoot it.)

3. I would not move an inch, because the rule of predators is to go after moving prey. And if it went after me anyway? I would get out my gun and hatchet.

(I'm just assuming the water is purified. If not, I suppose I could make something helpful.)
