- In this episode we dig into some groundhog in effort to stave off starvation. Groundhog are small, but they are all we have, so we make use of the entire animal including the stomach, brain, and skin cooked in a very traditional way that preserves everything.
Catch n cook is what this series is all about!
This scrape and singe method is very similar to how it would be prepared by the Hadza people which are one of the only remaining hunter-gatherers alive today.
Welcome to Season 2 of The Wilderness Living Challenge. As last year, the rules are simple, come out as heavy or heavier than going in to crown ourselves victors.
This year we decided to be more mobile and we came in ready with a plan. Find out if we can put turn a year's worth of experiments and learning into success and thrive in our epic journey of survival!

The Wooded Beardsman hi brother I like thing please give me the old things because I like,,,I hope u understand me,,,I'm poor people here at my nation.
DONT KILL ANIMALS
I HATE THIS
If y'all hate this then don't watch it you clearly saw a dead animal you should have not clicked the video
Somebody sue this guy
U. Can’t kill groundhogs
"People who are watching this video wanna see everything, they're weird like us." Very well said my friend, lol.
My dog got one, it's in my fridge. First one I've cooked.
Was that a taco in the trap? Man you would have found me in that trap.
Cantaloup works best.
XD
The Wooded Beardsman a cantaloupe taco sounds very interesting
Looked like taco bell
Mark Tiongco I think they would’ve ate you too... 😩😂💀
All animals lovers want to complain until they end up in the situation that you’ll eat anything you hunt and then then tables turn, amazing content love your channel!
Thanks guys for the video. I'm up here in WV, and we love groundhog here. I ate 22 of them one summer. I have found that they are better on a stick because the fat tastes so rough. They eat a lot of clover and they taste like that clover and smell like that clover as you are preparing them for cooking. Skin 'em and put 'em on a stick rotisserie style. Try that without the fat, you'll like it a lot better. Lot of garlic helps tone down the clover smell and taste. Oh and also, they're nick name is whistle pigs. Just sayin'.
2:12 “good shot” as he kneels with the barrel 12 inches away from the cage 😂
Trouble with groundhogs is once you’ve eaten one you have to eat them day after day after day after day after day...
Ahhhh man, that's awesome, love it!
Alex Briggs exactly 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
wild paw Ha I see what u did there 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Lmfao!!!
Beautiful comment
I know this is how our ancestors survived, but eating half-digested cantaloupe out of a dead groundhog's stomach is way past what I could do.
You'd dir in a power cut
Nope, that just sounds disgusting. Yuck.
Clinton Leonard just think. He did it for us. (And possibly his enjoyment)
How do you know what your ancestors did ? And which ancestors there's all kinds of humans that lived in different time periods so even if some did eat resembling this fashion theyre are probably to those that didn't... my guess is as good as any probably not shoving any thing down anybodys neck ...food for thought ....you are what you eat lol
You'd do it right of the bat if you had to survive in a forest and been starving for weeks or months.
"You want some spinal cord?" "You want some paw skin?" Man, homeboy's pretty hard-core.
LMAO Ikr...
Spinal cord marrow soup is good just like regular bone marrow. Careful with prions tho only use young animals under 2 years old I think.
Funny how people judge this guy when most of them eat meat... the difference is they dont hunt they just buy it.
If you're vegan.... well just leave the video,
2 years late but. There an ireland survivalist who is also vegan and he explains that in a survival situation rating meat never killed noone.
5 years late but i think what bothers people the most is eating the stomach contents.
Everything was going great until he started swallowing the stomach contents. Then I had to swallow my own stomach contents.
How about sucking the brains out through it's nostrils, lol. 😶
Dude. Thats a strong ass fork.
gary redmond my thoughts exactly
gary redmond I was wondering if I would see this comment..
I thought maybe I was weird to think about the strength of a fork but it looks like I'm not alone.
gary redmond lmao exactly what i though when he picked up that pot
I swear I was thinking that when he did it lol
Cleanest fade I’ve ever seen on a groundhog, you can say he’s fresh to death 😏💀
Jay Romeo 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh😅😅😅
💀😂
Lol
Can someone translate?
That groundhog got pranked hard
Bobluge Togonom haha btw he didnt got shot the rifle was fake he died of the shock XD
@@Corazon_Dorado lol 😂
it's just a prank bro
On the Navajo Nation, my dad and his brothers would hunt prairie dogs with my grandpa and they'd cook em right up, like this. My dad scolded us for talking how you guys talked about the groundhog, when you described it as acidic, gelatinous, or slimy, or said to "pretend it's your girlfriend." He'd tell us that it was wrong to speak of food that way. That's the Navajo way: say good things about your food. That was in the 1960s in New Mexico. My dad and his family still used a horse and buggy to travel from Tohatchi to Gallup, or Tohatchi to Twin Buttes.
the guy in the blue is always like 'its good" the entire time everyone else looks disgusted haha he's so funny
Well now youve gone and done it.
We'll never have spring again...
Ha, you made me chuckle! Bring on forever winter!!!
It’s groundhog day
We will be cold forever!!!!
That groundhog is cute and he killed it
AngryKhan pmLOL YEA PHILLY
You leave nothing to waste, skin included that is commitment.
:)
mate, they ate the undigested food from the groundhogs stomach aswell
man we have gotten too comfortable. Watching stuff like this is humbling and reminds me of the wild stuff people had to do to survive. These things were considered normal. Great channel love watching.
Life is hard, it's sad that people forget, we don't need zombies to make it "more interesting", thanks for sharing.
Alright! Who wants the butt part raise your hand.
-no one raises their hand-
Too bad! Jimmy your getting it.
Raises hand
"Why are you gagging?" LMAO 😄
Unbelievable that CZcams won't pay you for this kind of knowledge. Thanks for the video.
It's true, they won't. I even took out the most educational parts because YT flags them. In fact, they are currently in cue/"private" as flagged. I am now appealing them, but whatever happens, YOU WILL SEE THEM! The scrapping, gutting, etc. will be up next Wednesday!
CZcams needs to burn in hell tbh
I don't think it's unbelievable at all. The videos Chris makes convey his message of self-reliance, individual competence & survival ability outside any city or town (or maybe within the poorest sections of one, where life is dangerous & public services are often lacking). This message cannot be doubted, whatever viewers may feel about it. CZcams, OTOH, was generated from within a large metropolitan area & is now owned by Google, a corporation (which was also started within a city). Cities are manifestations of organized collective life; they value interdependence & reliance on centralized life support systems. A city *must* value such things at some level in order to exist. These values are not bad in & of themselves--even the pioneers & mountain men had to return to town to trade for supplies the forests can't provide--but it's inevitable that they inherently conflict with the self-reliant life.
DISCGOLF DADDY knowledge ? He killed a innocent animal for no reason it’s like he can’t go to a story buy a dead one no he had to kill one that wasn’t bothering anyone
Jett draco lll oh I'm sorry did you get offended? What will you do when your life depends on knowing how to do something like this? That's right it never will because you live online and will NEVER have any kind of real life experience. Also they clearly said that it was a nuisance animal. For all you know the family that owns that property has a garden they depend on for food and that animal was destroying there crops. But again you do not now nor will you ever know what that is like. And if you had to rely on a crop to feed your family chances are they wood be screwed, because you know nothing about it. Enjoy your hormone injected inhumanly raised store bought food. Get a life you ignorant shit! IF YOU DONT LIKE IT DONT WATCH IT!! Sorry guys didn't mean to rant. It's people like this that are causing your channel to have problems.
*TO THE VIEWER PLEASE READ, groundhog often create problems for other animals such as horses and cows since they tunnel and create holes in pastures. If another animal falls, the injury is often fatal. In order to keep this damage in check, we use live animal traps, specific to the animal. In Ontario, Canada, we are not able to re-release trapped animals further than 1 km from their origin. Since animals have big home ranges, this presents a problem for their release as they will often simply return and the problem will never go away. Instead, we decided to make use of the groundhog and eat the entire animal leaving nothing to waste.*

The Wooded Beardsman What type of balm or oil do you use for your beard?
i really hope that people stop freaking out that you killed _____ when its for good reason and perfectly justified and done with respect. I really hope you dont lose your mind having to justify every animal every time to people who cant get over anythings death. Also keep up the amazing, fasinating, realistic and educational content!
The Wooded Beardsman I think u can get parasite from grass hoppers ..not sure but I think U have to pull off the head..but I c people eat them .might have seen it on monsters inside me ...I live in florida so certian fish like speckled trout red drum bigger fish salt water durng hot months will potentially have parasite. We only eat oyster when months that have an r in them
Don Harrus good to know. Is there a warning time for rabbit?
Roy B there are people that get but hurt over hunting but fish or eat commercial meat. Makes no sense.
No vegetarians were entertained or given salad while making this video. Great video. I love to live in the wild like this
Not just commitment to the animal, but proper appreciation of the animal and it's contribution to humans. This is hunting/trapping I can get behind.
I want a relationship as strong as that fork
This made me exhale out my nose
Bruh
Solid Af 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I seen that too like gah damn that fork strong strong on a cast iron POT not a pan lmaooo and tha top
I realy respect you guy’s for teling us the real way of surviving in the bush. ATB -Yves
Thanks Yves, it really would be quite challenging.
I wouldn't let This guy near my dog
He’d eat a dog forsure... I recall him cooking a fox
It looked so funny when you were bathing him in the fire and ashes 😂
10:02 did he just apologize to a tree for bumping into it.
lol
But he ate the ground by hog and didn't apologize
*peta has just entered the chat*
Mark Saber u got that DAMN right... he's a sick person... I won't even watch.. I am paused on an add. And I'm also going to flag it for inappropriate content😋😘
Jacquie Wisha But why though? I understand that you don’t like it, but that doesn’t make it inapropriate. If youkre flagging it you’re just trying to ruin someone elses enjoyment..
Jacquie Wisha Man, salty much?
Jacquie Wisha can I ask you what do you eat that doesn’t kill or harm animals Bc I can’t think of one thing
Jacquie Wisha it’s not inappropriate sweety it’s education

High in Protein meal! Good job brother!
Easily the most simple, energy efficient, nutrient-saving, and historically accurate catch/cook video i ever seen. Also one of the nastiest looking vids i ever seen too! Lolol
19:45 "They're weird like us." Totally. lol
It's good to be weird!
Absolutely. If people would get over their obsession with processed meats and food, and actually take the time to watch your videos...weird would be the new normal. :D
Lol I'm dead 💀
The full video where we go into detail about the cleaning and scrapping (as the Hadza Hunter-Gatherers would) will air next Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. EST. So far the video is "not suitable for all advertisers"...I have sent in an appeal... which is why we have not kept it in with the main storyline for the series.

Yeees!!! Watch you guys are going to get huge off this 💪 I'm sure this video will get there IMA share this on Facebook
The Wooded Beardsman
I will wait with baited breath!!!
How did it taste?
The Wooded Beardsman you can't just fish or hunt a deer that could last you a week or 2. do you really have to go for the small animals
We go over this in episode 1 and also Season 1 (from last year). No, we are not allowed to release trapped nuisance animals, it's not legal. So instead of wasting it, we decided to eat it.
im convinced you guys are humanoid zombies , you guys literally eat everything, nice video for a catch in cook im definitely subscribing to y'all I love this content
When the people doesn't have any money to buy a food, do like this!!!
@Jason Woodcock Prior planning. As a hunter should already have means to hunt and fish
@Jason Woodcock That's why you should be prepared or learn how to make traps and snares. Most hunters don't have metal traps but stuff can be made.
There really is nothing that compares to the sensation of a nice, freshly shaven, charred gopher is there?
Still one of my favorite channels ever. Amazing content with some warm hearted guys and quality made. Well done bro!
Good stuff!! I guess we are weird for watching but you guys are slightly weirder for eating some of the more 'interesting' parts lol
Well, I might give you guys some weird ideas that you might try!!!!
Oh yes
Well the way I see it is your eating the stomach so we don't have to but know it's ok.
I'm weird always will be.
Nothing wrong with that! And I'd actually eat the stomach again. Though I'm kind of curious to know if a winter hare is full of it's own poo hahaha, since they will actually re-eat and digest a second time...kinda gross lol
Pinetree Line Outdoors wouldn’t say there weird at all, think of the crap u consume daily that’s weird as is most modern food production, just cos it comes in fur rather than a tray with film on, as for the guts etc perfectly good wild food as nature intended, not steroid water filled crap like you buy from a supermarket, where there fed shyt and kept like slaves until there ready to be killed, must be a comfort for them to know there escaping modern food farming,as for the insects there actually one of the best foods to eat in Asia Thailand and Cambodia etc it’s perfectly normal to eat insects u can stop by a road and get a bag of freshly fried grasshoppers, crickets and there nice, and high in protein and low in fat, all better than the crap u buy from any shop.
John Bhaal I was actually just kidding around. I wouldn't watch if I thought these guys were anything but interesting, educational and very progressional in their thinking. Have a nice day!
I can hear the vegans screaming...
deXter1ty
No offense to vegen. When the shtf and serious hunger sets in. ..starve???
I'm not screaming. I'm vegan and enjoy this channel for educational purposes. U never know when we will have to survive again, the world is changing; and it's not the first time that a planetary catastrofe has occured in the past.
I'm vegan because of the planet btw, we're definetly experiencing climate change in Europe, lots of tree species going extinct in the middle east, and people migrating away from Africa because of the climate change there (moving north to where I am). Animal agriculture is a big culprit; and thinking u need those fats to stay healthy is a fallacious thought. Gotta be flexible in your given situation: I'm vegan for the world, my health, and the animals; but definetly don't shy away from living a hunter-gatherer lifestyle when it becomes necessary...
Point is, it isn't necessary; and we can live way more easily by adopting smart gardening styles (back to eden permacultural gardening, for example; low effort, high produce). Aside form this, tubers man. Early man was scavenging for sure; but one of the few reliable food staples in the wild were underground food storages. Seeds, nuts, tubers, whole grains, herbs, and greens; and I'll be a happy strong man.
Gerard Hoornweg
Props to you budy I'm glad your not like the other vegans
i'm vegan and i love these video's. i don't eat meat because personally i don't think an animal should have to die for my greed when there are alternatives. but in a survival situation damn straight i'm eating the first thing that comes along it's a bloody good thing to know how to catch kill prepare and cook an animal in that situation should it arise, plus not only that but he also show's you what kinds of plants are edible as well which is good to know as plants can be more harmful if the wrong ones are consumed. as for anyone that does eat meat not my place to comment i would never shove my opinions in someone else's faces. i wouldn't want to be trapped in a survival situation and not have the slightest idea how to survive. im sure most vegans would probably not last long at all i don't intend on being one of them
@Preston W stop being such a fassy and searching for things to be offended by. These guys are eating the animal so it's not going to waste. people are going to eat meat regardless off my standing in the situation. I didn't say I agree with eating meat or the killing of an animal did I so get off your high horse. I simply said in a survival situation I would like to know how to survive and that's why I like these videos. So bother someone else with your virtue signalling.
I don’t care for the flavor of wild game. Since I don’t eat it I don’t hunt. I do enjoy assistive hunters and being out in the wilds. Enjoyed your video. removing the hair of the the critter I found fascinating. It makes sense to do that then just skinning it and getting who know what from the hair on to the meat.
I remember trapping two groundhogs that made my barn floor collapse, surprisingly tasty and the hides are tough enough to make moccasins with.
yes these make great strong leather for shoes, trim them out nice with squirrel skin which is very tough too.
No ground hog or any animal was harmed in the making of this film.
It was just eaten...
It was a paid actor
Just a suggestion here. Rendering that fat out of the skin will be a much more satisfying meal. Place something in the bottom of the dutch oven like some green ash, maple, cherry, or oak branches the size of your pinky. Quarter that puppy out on top of your stick rack. Head, rib/back (saddle,) arms, legs. Cook it dry for half hour-45 minutes, covered. That will render enough fat that it will not stick. Then pull it off and take the sticks out: (Make some wooden pliers with two sticks lashed together with bank line or whatever cordage.) Or use your leatherman.
Place the quarters, saddle, and head back in (skin side down )and let them fry for 10 to 15 min: turn, season then,:;,then add your liver and heart. (the organs cook pretty fast.) 10 minutes pull everything but the head and start munching. Add the stomach and brown it like a sausage. then add water to finish cooking it and the head.
Another way is to skin the animal after you singe (and maybe scald it.) Then cut the skin in half inch by 1 inch strips or so: fry to render and you can munch on backwoods pork rinds while the meat is frying. Roast, fry, boil, in that order. RFB baby. You can eat like a king.
Elegant!
Christopher Neely that sounds really good if spring ever arrives in Vermont I'm going to try that
Christopher Neely i hope they try this
Yes, yes, yes, I need to try this lol
Yes! I was about to suggest something similar, just not as detailed! All I was thinking was: skin it, get the fat out of the skin and store it, then fry the skin and it should be much tastier! and then use the rest in a stew. but those detailed suggestions of yours... I'm gonna try that some time as well! love it!
Its nice how humane you are, you could've saved the heart too if you'd say strangled it, or maybe hit it over the head, but that risks the brain, nice to see you chose kindness over extra calories
Exactly right. Anyone who tortures animals is not a hunter in my books.
Steampunk Smilodon I think he should have just cooked him in the cage alive. Make him pay for being such a nuisance. And bury his bones by a urinal making a public mockery of him.
@@TheSickest666 This guy acting like a groundhog destroyed his marriage
@@TheSickest666 you obviously are person who is not right in the head
Wow. I don't even know what to think. A part of me is so grateful that these men would teach us how to survive on ground hog.
i searched groundhog eating hoping to find a cute video to show my mom and amidst all the results I see someone cooking and eating a groundhog. Made me cackle.
I live in the city never really gone out in nature, but I love these videos
Great episode guys. It was lots of fun to watch you guys do what you do and to be a part of it.
Can't wait until next Friday!!
Thanks for your help again Adam! You really helped make this what it is.
“Pretend it’s your girlfriend” that line shall be remembered for centuries 😂
Kool they are taking Mr. Happy out to woods to release him that's so kind....Wait! What's with the gun! OMG!! They killed him!
Mr Happy!!! I love that! LMAO
one bite & put his fork up man I’m dying 😂😂😂😂😂
imma save that beaver for y’all 😂
I have eaten Ground Hog before but I always skinned it and pressure cooked it. Only the young ones. Old ones have way too much brown fat on them. Best meat I have ever tasted.
Respect fellas, as I said with the Porcupine, field to fork is more honest than shop to plate.
Yup!
I never cooked a ground hog in that manner. There are scent glands, white in color, under the front and rear leg pits. Scent glands ruin the taste of the meat. Remove the head. I always cut the fat off to help remove the gamey taste. I always skinned mine making sure not to let the fir touch the meat, removed the guts and scent glands. Put the hog in water and put 3 or so tablespoons of salt on the hog and in the water, place the hog in the pot in the refrigerator and let it soak over night. You remove the water and salt solution and repeat this water and salt treatment for a second night if the ground hog is not young, note that I never ate old ground hogs, often showing grey fur. After this I put the hog in a large pot, cut up some vegetables, I like carrots and potatoes because I am from the mid-West. A large hog will feed a family of 4 to 6. It is a lot of work getting the fur off because a ground hog is the largest member of the squirrel family. It is NOT like skinning a rabbit.
Always enjoyable when you and Jer team up.
This is eye opening for me. Even I am Chinese America I am entertained. Good job guys.
Great _gourmet_ cooking channel you have there bud.
this is a vegan nightmare xD
WAS PLAYING ROBLOX WHILE WATCHING THIS AND WHEN YOU THRW THAT BUG IN THAT BUCKET THE OOF SOUND CAME ON LOL
Kobe :D hehe
U play roblox
Gagged a little at eating the groundhog skin, not gonna lie. Trapped a couple digging around my house and they made a really great stew but those things stink to high heaven! First thing they do when you catch em is crap themselves. So gross on the outside that after skinning and dressing them I had to wait a day before I could get the smell out of my nose and will myself to eat em. Gave me time to brine them though.
Hahahaha the way the guy eats the skin like he was gonna puke..i couldnt stop laughing.but the video is awwsome
I ate groundhog many times,,But never the skin or inerds...If I was going to eat a groundhog in the wild ,,Itwould be gutted ,,skinned and roasted .
As soon as they began the cooking process i knew they had very limited experience lol
I grew up hunting and eating groundhog. I have NEVER seen it cooked with the skin on, and I've never seen it boiled whole. The thought just churns my stomach.
Haha I love you guys! You erase the taboos of food. It is amazing the things we do if we were starving. Also the things we won't do when we have plenty. Hey Chris have you guys researched algea soup yet? You should try it some time. It taste like pumpkin and very high in protein.
I've heard of it. I'll have to check and see if I can find a source. Thanks for the suggestion!!!
Cane & Pole is all algae? And how do u process/cook it? This sounds good, thank you!!!
+The Wooded Beardsman dummy
Everyone knows we all have a separate stomach just for dessert
I grew up in Pennsylvania, killed many a groundhog. My best friend and me roasted a good groundhog,soaked in 57 sause and vinegar, it was good. I ate a few old groundhogs that were not so good. A silly old recipe says "roast groundhog on board, spice well, roast for an hour, discard groundhog, eat board" ☻
I'm really glad you kind of explained that the gopher is a nuisance animal.
I want to hunt, but I have a really hard time killing things. I have to remember that's my part in the balance of the world.
That shovel from Fowler is cool as heck!
I think I would try anything just falling off the bone like that🤣🤔
Hey, love the vid...BUT that was too much water and it will over power the seasoning put and also thats why the meat is slimy.. Next time put a little water like half or a little lower than half the pot then be adding water as you cook when it finishes till the meat is cooked..Game is nicer when a bit chewie and flavorful.. Greetings from ZAMBIA, Home of the Victoria falls, Africa.
Thanks for the tip! Problem was that we went off to reset traps so couldn't tend it or make sure the water didn't boil off and cause it to burn!
7:15 I wish i could get a shave like that
LOL! He looks so peaceful curled up in the pan with spices pouring on them!
You these people in the woods turn the other way cause your what's for dinner
Wow!! When you ate the tongue I really got hungry!!!
Great video again!
i really enjoy the techniques and little life tips on survival you guys have for the wilderness
very interesting and informative
Its just gross. It seems wrong.
I agree with you.
My thing lately is curing meat for storage.
Just finished some 2 month old pemmican.Big hit.
Nice!
_"How is it?"_ > _"It's not bad."_
_"Then why are you gagging?"_ > _"Because it's slimy."_
*Well there's a resounding endorsement...*
:)
The guy holding the hog in the thumbnail looks like redhead Rick from the walking dead TV series 😂😂
I found this to be a very fascinating/interesting video considering my background of living and eating and never seen much like this before.
Great video with awesome footage, thanks for it, thumbs up and best regards from all of us in Kiwi land, Tony.
Thank Tony!
waikarimoana Ayyyy u said kiwi how can i help ya
This amazing bushcraft channel and video he’s makes are great way for people to about food and experience bushcraft activities and I am glad to support this amazing man and his exciting experience bushcraft channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀 this man next bear grylls and the next meat should be snake
Ha nice! I'd love to try snake. I'll have to travel though, none is legal to take around here that I know.
Hope you removed the musk glands before
I was thinkin the same thing
Beavers not groundhogs.
Groundhogs have scent glands just like beavers. Even if you don’t gut it at least cut out the scent glands, otherwise it’s gonna have a very strong and gamey taste. If you like gamey taste then ya’ll did I great job. Boiling is very effective against any parasites it might have had. When I cook groundhog I typically put it in a crockpot with potato’s, tomato’s, carrots, & seasonings. Great video btw ya’ll. Really enjoyed watching it.
I had a relative who was a young boy in Berlin, Germany during the war. He told me, “Rats are actually pretty good, but cats were horrible.” When you are starving, you will literally eat anything. They would strip wallpaper to eat the wallpaper paste.
jaysus you fullahs must have been hungry as
"Weird like us" lol
They certainly did not waste a single bit of meat on that groundhog.
Adam looks as he loves outdoors but want eat outdoors like 😂😂
I like mine deboned , filet in strips and fried with ketchup. So so good. Fried groundhog,rattlesnake,and bull frog legs dont get any better
Honestly I would have tried it roasted instead ...lol
💯% roasting sounds and would look more appetizing to me also.
Thank you for filming
I am from Libya and i follow you
These are the real skills we need.
This is similar to how we Hmong people cook squirrel and groundhog. Using a blowtorch on the fur and then using a knife to scrape the burnt fur until it's nice and white skin. We dont keep any organs because of parasites. Then put all sorts of fresh herbs which makes it smells really nice and the broth is delicious.
Wow. I though being an animal with a fur that you would skin it first. But you actually burned the hairs off and kept it all !! Ha ha ha amazing...
loved this video! i dont catch or cook haha but still enjoyable to watch!
i've shot hundreds of ground hog and it never crossed my mind to eat one
