You’ll never go hungry in the jungle… as long as you know how to find some food 😂

And of course, a little bit of luck and perseverance never hurts 👀

Survival is a bit like a lottery. The more tickets you buy, the better your chances. Set more fishing lines, check more opportunities, stay observant, and keep working at it.

Be open, be opportunistic, and you will usually find success. That is one of the things that makes the jungle such a fair environment. The more consistently you do the right things, the more likely you are to be rewarded for your efforts.

It is one of the core philosophies behind how we teach survival on our jungle survival courses 🇬🇾💪

Kinkajou, or as it is often known locally here in Guyana, the “night monkey” 🇬🇾

This little fellow was spotted in a tree at Rock Landing Camp, where we got treated to a display of some truly impressive climbing skills.

Despite the nickname, Kinkajous are not monkeys at all. They are actually more closely related to raccoons, coatis, and other members of the Procyonidae family.

We often hear them moving through the canopy and occasionally catch a glimpse of them at night. One of their most distinctive features is the powerful reflection from their eyes when caught in the beam of a head torch.

Almost exclusively nocturnal, they can sometimes be seen alone and other times in small groups, moving through the treetops in search of fruit and their next meal 💪🌙

Rain or not, we are going! 🇬🇾💪

Sometimes you find yourself right in the middle of it, and there is not much else to do than laugh and carry on 😂

The great thing about the tropics is that even when you get completely soaked and a little chilly, you are not going to freeze. Before long the sun is back out and everything starts drying again ☀️🌧️

A bit of rain has never stopped an adventure. In fact, it usually makes for the best stories.

Embrace the adventure 🥇

Rainy season legends! 10 went in, 10 went through, 10 succeeded! 🔥💪

An incredible performance from our most recent jungle survival course. Horrendous conditions, mud, mosquitoes, poor fishing, and everything else that comes with surviving in the rainforest, yet every single participant made it through 😎

We can teach the skills, but we cannot teach character. That is the part that gets you through the difficult moments. We simply provide the framework and the canvas, you are the ones who fill it with grit, determination, and hard work 🤣🙏

We are incredibly proud of this group and extremely grateful to have shared yet another outstanding survival course with them.

As always, we were supported by an exceptional team from , without whom none of this would be possible 🇬🇾🥇

, , , Thiago, Loana, Ivo, Elke, Susan, Peter and Luc — we salute you 🏹🏆

A lot of stories from life in the rainforest emerge whenever Lionel James is leading a session 🇬🇾🥇

The teachings are delivered with passion and context, much the same way Lionel was taught by his parents and grandparents.

Out here, knowledge is rarely written down. It is passed on through stories, observation, experience, and sometimes through a few hard lessons learned along the way 😂

The rainforest is a place that needs to be interpreted by those who know it best. Every plant, animal, trail, and season has a story, and few people tell those stories better than the people who have lived alongside them their entire lives 🏹🙏

We are back from our most recent jungle survival course 🇬🇾🏹

As always, this involved plenty of time practicing with traditional bows and arrows made by Lionel James.

Today, archery is often taught in large open spaces, but the reality of using a bow in the rainforest is very different. Tight spaces, obstacles, uneven terrain, and low light all become part of the challenge.

Are you ready to join a Jungle Bushcraft course? 🇬🇾🥇

We are running our second course this year, with more dates already planned for next year.

You will be led by Ray, bushcraft instructor from , alongside Lionel James, as you are taken through a combination of modern and traditional bushcraft skills including bow and arrow making, fire lighting methods, advanced trapping, fishing, food foraging, and much more 🙂

The course delivers an internationally recognised certification and is designed so that anyone can join, even without previous experience.

Our team members from the many communities we work with have truly mastered the art of making everything look simple and effortless 😂

This is Elbert from Kopinang carrying a large Warashi deep in the mountains on the way towards Makunaimá Cave.

An incredible group of mountain guides up there, with strength, endurance, and knowledge of the landscape that is seriously impressive 🙏🇬🇾🥇

This could be you catching a Tiger Catfish during our jungle survival course 😉

One of the usual suspects in the B***o B***o River and an absolutely welcome meal during an isolation phase 🙏😂

Everyone on the course receives training in hand line fishing, and of course we always have experienced local experts with us to show just how effectively it can be done 🤣

Piggy’s 😂🐷

Peccaries are one of the classic characters of the rainforest, roaming through the jungle in sometimes massive herds. They carry a strong scent and are well known for rampaging through farms and crops in nearby communities 😶

This one was spotted just a short walk from , and what an incredible experience it was to see one this close up 🇬🇾🥇
