The Scorpion

In The Wild ·

2023/06/27

A scorpion symbolizes evil, death, destruction, and unpleasant situations. Filmmakers have long used imagery of scorpions to convey the above moods in a storyline. Scorpions themselves are unique. Classified as predatory arachnids, they are related to spiders. Scorpions have eight legs and a pair of pincers extruding from their front limbs. But what makes them unique is the narrow, segmented tail, curving up from behind and resting above the scorpion’s back. At the end of the tail is a stinger,

For over three years here at In the Wild podcast, we’ve told dozens of real-life stories of survival. Many of these situations take place deep in the woods, with families and individuals simply looking to escape and enjoy nature, only to be unsuspectingly attacked by ferocious predators in their natural habitat. We asked our listeners what their greatest fear would be if they were to be out in the woods with things taking a major turn for the worse. They answered overwhelmingly that the greatest

We all have dreams, or accomplishments that we wish to check off the ol’ bucket list during our time here. Some of them are more ambitious than others, and some that you’d need a nice chunk of time to complete. That’s why many of these milestones are put off until retirement, with people wishing they had the time off from work to get out and make a certain dream come true. This was true of 76-year-old Joe DiTommasso, a recreational sailor and a native of the South New Jersey/Philadelphia region. He

Surviving at Sea with Ketchup and Spices

In The Wild ·

2023/05/27

There are three different types of macronutrients that make up our diet: carbs, fats, and proteins. All three are needed in order for us to live optimally. There are some people who restrict their intake of one of the following dramatically though, namely those on the keto diet, who drastically reduce their carb intake. Exceptions aside, all three of these are vital. So, how long could one survive off simply eating condiments or spices practically null of any nutritional value? We wouldn’t recommend

Saving His Dad at 10 Years Old

In The Wild ·

2023/01/04

What was the biggest responsibility you were tasked with at 10 years of age? For many of us, the answer would be taking out the garbage, or some other simple chore around the house. How about…saving your father’s life? Sounds far-fetched, or nearly impossible, but for Cody Sloot, that was what he was called to do, and only days after celebrating that 10th year of birth nonetheless.

Cougar Attack

In The Wild ·

2022/12/23

The cougar (or “mountain lion” as they are sometimes known) is a hypercarnivore with a diet consisting of 70% meat. It is as alpha as it gets, at the top of the food chain, and is never prayed upon. No other animal would dare go up against a mountain lion in the wild, knowing that this vicious creature would tear upon them ferociously and feast upon its flesh instinctively. Luckily for humans, cougar attacks are rare, with 126 documented attacks in North America. For those unlucky individuals,

2022/07/14

On Monday, January 3, 2022, a winter storm swept into Virginia, pelting the region with ice and snow, shutting down I-95 and stranding commuters for more than 24 hours.

2022/04/20

One of the most popular swimming and diving destinations in the southwestern United States is the Blue Hole of Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Stretching only 80 feet in diameter at the surface, the Blue Hole has beckoned wildlife and travelers as a desert oasis for hundreds of years. When Route 66 was constructed in the 1920s, the Blue Hole and its enticing deep blue, clear, pure waters became a popular tourist attraction for motorists passing through the area.

Yoga Instructor Gone 17 Days in the Hawaiian Forest

2022/02/16

Mechanicsville, Maryland is not a particularly exciting place. Outside of having a considerable Amish population, it’s not really known for much at all. Amanda Eller is not Amish, this is just where she happened to grow up; and this may be why a free spirit like Amanda had a desire to go somewhere more scenic, warm, interesting, and most of all, spiritual.
