About the Author ..............

Lost!

All around you, there is noise... loud, steady,

and distracting. Sudden, strange sounds

punctuate

the constant hum. What is it? Whats out there?

Its hard to think with all this noise!

You are hot and sticky from the heat. The air

feels heavy. Breathing is difficult. Tall trees grow

around you, and you cant see into the distance.

Plants cover the ground, and animals swing through

the trees. Birds dart overhead. Everywhere you

look, there are bugs! Rain falls suddenly without

warning, giving relief from the heat but drenching

you. You dont know which way to turn for shelter

and protection.

You are lost and alone in the jungle.

Discover how to survive

in the jungle.

Find out how to find

food and water when

youre lost.

Learn the advantages

of

being lost in the jungle.

There are more types of

animals in the jungle

than anywhere else on land.

How Did I Get Here?

People dont get stranded in the jungle very often.

There arent many roads there for cars to break down

on. But maybe you are hiking through a jungle to

explore the exotic plants and animals, and suddenly

you find yourself separated from your group. Or you

try to hike through an unfamiliar jungle, and you

lose your way. Or maybe there is a plane crash you

survive the crash, but now you must survive the jungle.

Of course, it doesnt really matter how you got

there. What matters is how you use your brains and

attitude to think, plan, stay calm,... and survive!

More than 2,000,000 people visit

the Amazon jungle every year.

Jungle trees grow more than

feet above the forest floor.

About percent of the world's

species live in jungle rainforests.

Make a Plan

All in all, Id rather be in Philadelphia. Thats what

comic W.C. Fields was rumored to want written on his

tombstone. If you were lost in a jungle, you might think

the same thing! But to get out of your situation, youll

need to keep calm and make a plan. You cant just wish

away your tough situation.

So, first things first. Look around you and decide on

a plan. Should you stay put and wait for help to come

to you, or should you try to find help? In many cases,

staying put will not be the best option. It may be

hard for someone to see you under the canopy of

trees and thick plants. Its not a good idea to

wait to be rescued in the jungle. You should

probably find your own way out.

Packing for the Jungle

If youre stuck in the jungle, youll want to have some

tools with you.

netting

tweezers

poncho

shoes

fire starter

compass

Attitude

The most important thing

for survival is to have a good

attitude. It will help you

stay calm, and staying calm

helps you think clearly. Just

remember you have what it

takes to make it!

Finding Your Way

If you became lost in the jungle while hiking, your

best bet would be to find your way back to camp. How

do I do that? you might ask. Well, it starts before
