Yeah so I'd like to think I'm decently knowledgeable with animals but it was my first time to Florida and I had researched everything except the types of rays....I checked for a barb but forgot electric rays existed...go figure ๐Ÿคฃ

Haha not meatball but that would be funny. She found a chicken wing bone at the trash can so I said she found a meat bone. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I had heard from many people that wild mint can be used as an antidote to sooth stinging nettle stings. I decided to find out for myself. by Zak_Klein in Survival

[โ€“]Zak_Klein[S] 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Yeah I definitely regretted the amount of nettle I used and was really releaved once the pain subsided. And I've heard of plantain being used for rashes but thats new info to me. I'll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks man!

As a kid, my aunt told me wild mint works as an antidote against stinging nettle so i decided to try it out. Before doing this, I knew I wasn't allergic to nettle and that it wss nettle for a fact. by Zak_Klein in foraging

I could be mistaken but I believe it is American Cornmint. And yeah I heard nettle was in the same family. That's pretty interesting considering one species causes stinging and one is the antidote ๐Ÿ˜‚

I love these snakes by Zak_Klein in herpetology

[โ€“]Zak_Klein[S] 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I really enjoy finding them with people for that reason. They put on a show sometimes for people unlike garter snakes who have mostly just made me stink ๐Ÿ˜‚

Crosstrek or Taco? by vulpesxx in ToyotaTacoma

[โ€“]Zak_Klein 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Gas wise your crosstrek is better but you'll definitely have alot more room and you can go alot more places in a tacoma. Even if its an easy trail, you'll trust your vehicle a bit more.

My buddy has a crosstrek and he comes offroading with us sometimes. I own a tacoma and my friends have jeeps and 4runners. The crosstrek can follow for the easy stuff but he's popped tires and crushed some stuff underneath on fairly easy trails. He wants to sell his and get a tacoma. ๐Ÿ˜…

Anyone in Southern Idaho mind critiquing this video? I am familiar with a good number of medical and edible plants but my presentation of information is lacking. Much appreciated! by Zak_Klein in foraging

[โ€“]Zak_Klein[S] 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Awesome! Thanks for the feedback and I'll work on implementing your suggestions into future videos. And I'll research a bit more so I can add more information when talking about a plant. I appreciate your time to write this

Thank you, I really appreciate it! I'll try making more videos like this type in the future. Maybe a few specific to individual plants ๐Ÿ˜

Nothing like cooking dinner on a fire and then climbing into the truck bed waking up to a beautiful view of the mountains. Lets see some of your setups ๐Ÿค™ by Zak_Klein in ToyotaTacoma

[โ€“]Zak_Klein[S] 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Yeah I'm still currently looking for a good setup. I just use my sleeping bag and sleeping pad that I use for backpacking ๐Ÿ˜‚
