Example text

In New York State, even with a trapping license, snares cannot be used for trapping and you may not set a trap in such a manner that it causes a captured animal to be fully suspended in the air. So if you are going to practice the making of traps or snares, take them down after you practice triggering them, so they don’t catch a neighbors pet. A student once asked what would happen in a survival situation if an official of a government department regulating trapping caught them trapping. I stated that they would probably be taken to a warm place, given a phone call and possibly a warm meal.

They both have extremely detailed information as well as color photos. Samuel Thayer goes more in depth with the various seasonal aspects of plants than most other books. He also offers a DVD actually showing him in the field explaining the particulars of wild plants. There are other books available and I can recommend the Peterson Field Guide - Edible Wild Plants for Eastern/Central North America, as a good reference for the usability of edible plants. A couple of other books, although not specifically edible plant books, are very good at helping identify specific plants, at which time you can cross reference that plant to an edible plant book.

When I make a four-pronged frog gig, I split the pole twice as well. But, I then carve a quick pointed stick with square sides at the back, to use as a wedge. After wrapping behind the initial splits, I then use the pointed wedge to spread the four tines. This provides a center point on the frog gig to help hold the frog in place. Throwing sticks are quick, easily-made weapons that will take down small game. A throwing stick is another quick and easy weapon that will take down small game. It can simply be a stick of adequate weight that can be thrown at an animal, or a curved piece of wood (much like a boomerang) where you carve down the front and back side to give it a little more aerodynamics.
