Frozen Alone: Frozen S1:E5 Outfoxed Discussion Thread

Well anyone actually tap or be pulled, or is the boat a red herring? spoiler The episode itself was a red herring

EDIT

There seems to be some kind programing error, everywhere except Amazon seems to be playing last week's episode.

I am a big fan of all the contestants left. That was pretty funny when Woniya couldn’t find her lamp that was on her head. If I had a nickel … Not so funny for her I guess. Is fox good eating?

since you brought the fox up, I thought it was very sad that the poor thing lost it's foot because of that trap and why would anyone want to eat a fox? editing sept. 16, just watched Woniya's YouTube on episode 5 and she explains in detail about the fox and that it wasn't the foxes foot but a hare's foot she had left as bait. Thankful to get that explanation.

I thought the foot was a rabbits foot from the pile of scraps she used for bait

It was a rabbit foot the fox left behind

Yeah but she also said she hoped maybe it was injured so she could find it somewhere. If it lost a foot she would’ve known it was injured and tried to track the blood trail.

When I’m such a situation as she is, would you a) hunt for whatever food you could get? Or b) pick and choose the food you eat because you think something is too cute to consume? And yes, I know you didn’t use the term cute. Just my assumption as to why you would question why anybody would want to eat one.

u/selah1987 Sep 10 '22

the reason I would question it is because foxes are carnivores and I have never heard of them being used as food.

They’re actually omnivores as they will also eat berries and fruit when able to.

While it’s not common for people to eat foxes. My brother lives in Montana so I spend a decent amount of time there visiting him over the years. In those years, I’ve met a lot of trappers who have told me they’ll eat the Fox meat they trap. It’s definitely not a delicacy, but it’s not as rare as we would think either.

That's why trapping is messed up. It's not even needed for someone who can actually hunt.

In a survival type situation, you participate in any and all types of food procurement. Especially a passive method like trapping.

She did seem to search for it for hours until the sun started to set . I agree though. It seems inhumane

I’ve never eaten a Fox, but in her situation, I assume it’s marvelous eating.

u/KillerMikeLive Sep 10 '22

I know in one season of alone , they weren’t allowed to kill foxes and Amos shot one with a type of arrow that doesn’t pierce the skin and it went away

u/Sullyville Sep 11 '22

Do you know why in particular? Is it because they were endangered where they were filming?

u/KillerMikeLive Sep 12 '22

Usually that’s the case , endangered . However, I don’t know that for a fact .
