Survival 1

Kiki here and here are a few tips on survival

Island survival

1. Stay close to the beach and water but not to far away!
2. Find wood and begin to build a shelter.  Dig stick into the ground and do the same thing a few feet a away keep doing this till you a have a box shape in the sand.  
3. For the roof set down 4 sticks the same length as the other sticks width.  tie them all together in the box shape, make sure that it will fit on the top of the sticks in step 2.  Then get more and criss cross them and tie them down.
4. Attach the roof to the poles  try to make the structure around an inch or two taller then you.
5. then layer with pond fronds straw and grass. and viola!

Water @ Food;

1. Even if you're island doesn't have fresh water then you wont die from thirst
2. Get a coconut or three or five and find a sharp rock or coral in the ground or sand that won't move and start hitting coconut on rock or coral till splits open.
3. before you do that shake the coconut if you hear a slushing sound then it is ripe, you can drink the milk and eat the meat.
4. When you finish the the meat and juice from coconut, use the shells to collect the water from sea or river or rain and place over fire.
5. To make a fire ether do the old trick by rubbing two sticks together, or use match, lighter, or flint, or use a mirror to reflect the suns raise.
6. Boil the water in the coconut bowls about three or two times depending on water type. (If sea water test water every after every boil till fresh.  If from stagnant stream, well you're better of with salt water.  if it is from a fresh water stream that is moving fast clear and cold then bingo!  you can also collect rain water)
7. If you don't have then rain water is the best, or use a very fast clear cold moving stream that isn't salty.
8. if you have a clear or at least a Little clear plastic poncho, then you can make a still by cutting the plastic into squares as many that you can make that are around 1 foot on all sides.  or can fit coconut under.
9. Then stick a stick, about seven inches, into sand and put the plastic over the stick to make a tent.  NOTE! MAKE SURE IT IS IN SUNNY HOT AREA!!!!! place the coconut filled with water under the tarp.
10. Then place empty shells at each Connor.  You are done!  The still works using evaporation!  Leaving the salt and silt in the bottom and the water in the other cups!  You should make more then one if it should sustain you!
11. For food you're best bet is fruit!  Sure you can eat fish but is best to keep a guide of plants and animals with you at all times!

Rescue

1. The easiest one is if you have fire then make three huge bond fires in the shape of a triangle.
2. If you don't have fire then get rocks sticks what ever can be seen.  Right a HUGE!!!!!  SOS on the ground.
3. For a flare get two sticks each one at least three feet, one should be able to bend with easily.  Get some plant fibers or a thin sturdy vine, braid the fibers into a rope.
4. On the longer stick tie it a both ends they should be taught So you have a bow!
5. Then with the other stick which should be as straight as possible!  At one end make a point, then on the other end a SMALL grove so it stays the bow string.  Note you should make a few more.
6. Ripe a strip of fabric from shirt sail or pants, and rap it around the point of arrow.  When needed Light the fabric, with the grove on the middle of the string aim up and out and let it go!
7. A boat should be you're last resort!  If you do use the boat then stock up on water and food!  It should be fifty five Percent of the boat! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SHADE!  Use mud or Oil from coconut as suntan lotion.  Bring you're stills with you!  And you should only male up fifteen percent on the boat!  MAKE SURE IT IS WATER PROOF!!!!!!!!
8. And Have flares (see above)  Or a shinny object to reflect the sun to signal.  And even before you got ship recked on the Island keep a compass with you to see which way you went!

There will be more to come but here where a few things you needed to know!  There will be more soon!  And when signaling use Morris code ...---...  Or SOS to signal!
