Summary

"Jungle Survival Skills" delivers a comprehensive guide to thriving in tropical forests by masterfully blending indigenous wisdom with modern scientific understanding and military expertise. The book uniquely bridges traditional knowledge and contemporary survival techniques, offering readers a holistic approach to navigating and surviving in some of Earth's most challenging environments, including the Amazon, Congo Basin, and Southeast Asian rainforests.

 
Through three major sections, the book systematically explores essential aspects of jungle survival. The first section demystifies navigation techniques such as canopy reading and natural landmark identification, while the second focuses on critical risk assessment skills for handling dangerous flora, fauna, and extreme weather conditions. The final section provides practical instruction on resource procurement, including vital skills like water collection and shelter construction. Each chapter features detailed illustrations and real-world examples that transform complex concepts into actionable guidance.

 
What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting ecology, anthropology, and meteorology to create a deeper understanding of jungle environments. Drawing from documented field studies and survival cases, it offers both novice outdoor enthusiasts and experienced professionals a balanced perspective on traditional versus modern techniques. The content acknowledges contemporary challenges like deforestation and climate change while maintaining its focus on practical, proven survival strategies that can be applied across various tropical regions worldwide.

    Once upon a time, there was a family: Divya Dugar, her partner Olivier, their tiny hooman Marius, and their three rescue streeties-Tigress, Marcopolo and Pari. They lived in Delhi. And they wanted to go to other places. 
    So they booked a first-class coupe with the Indian Railways that allowed them to travel with their dogs. The sixsome went on many, many train journeys. It was not just about getting to a place, be it Goa, Rajasthan or Madhya Pradesh, but about seeing it with new eyes-and ears and noses, which is inevitable when half your touring party is canine. As they faced uncanny, hilarious situations and tried their best to grapple with systems designed for human convenience, the high point of the trips was often the adventures in the train compartment, which the dogs made their very own. 
    A witty, whimsical, wry account of those journeys, accompanied by some stunning photographs, Chaos in a Coupe is a book that travellers, pet parents and anyone who likes a good read will enjoy.
