Thanks, Cody, good tips. Who knows, maybe someday this could save my or another viewers life or at least keep from going thirsty or catch some nasty bug from having to drink contaminated water. Keep up the good work, you are much appreciated.
I don't know about maple, but in terms of birch you can just snap off a twig and mount your bottle on the remainder with some string, then leave it overnight. Much, much easier and infinitely less stressful for the tree. The drill method probably yields more at a time, but anyway... Good videos, man. I like your style. Informative, concise, good vibes and last but not least no advertisement/promotion/plug schemes going on. Love it!
I never heard of that, thanks! Sounds like a good compromise and feels better, not hurting the tree in the process as much. He may recover from a drill in the stem too, as I would from just a little stab with a knife Oo, but it´s nice to avoid stuff like that ;) Cheers buddy
Great info to have - thanks for sharing. I’ve seen a similar technique used on wild grape vines. Just cut a small notch in the vine and set a bottle underneath.
It has been a while since I brought him out with me. One of my filming locations is actually where I work part time. (488 acres) and the land owner loves that I film there. So I would usually do it after I finish what I'm doing which is why I didnt have him as much. Lately I've been bringing him with me as long as I'm not operating any machinery.
Apparently people only need 30g protein per day, so scrounging up two the required two tablespoons of animal fat may be more difficult if using insects as the base. However, more than 60% of protein is reduced to glucose during digestion, so it may actually be 75g of protein needed and on ants which is about 80% protein, that amounts to 94g of ants. At 2% body fat, 94g of ants would yield less than 2g of fat, a significant shortfall.
I just watched the video from 4 years ago. I'm glad to watch this one now. It's like watching a caterpillar become an older caterpillar. Turgor pressure by the way.
One of the reasons I remake some of my older videos. I might learn something new. Or I can pack the same amount of information into a shorter video making it more viewer friendly.
@@mattmarzula I like mixing it up. I know some people like "lean back" style videos and I know some people like cut to the chase fact fact fact videos. Trying to balance out the demographics and bring in more followers. I have really big dreams for this channel especially now and if I can bring in enough revenue to make the videos I want made to happen then itd be perfect. I'm already working with my local fire department on a future video. When it will get shot and released is completely unknown
Can you use fruit trees like cherry etc. I live in Philadelphia Pa. All our water is contaminated recommended not to drink or boil! I’m extremely thankful for your efforts to spread knowledge on how to make people more self sustainable.
Wtf are you talking about? (Your tap water, as delivered by the Philadelphia Water Department, is safe and does not need to be boiled in order to drink it. Boiling water increases the risk of scalding or burns.)
Beautiful ending shot. All that gunfire in the background makes me wish I were American. Now to translate everything to Southern Hemisphere... I didn't realise this wouldn't work in summer. We have a lot of pine/conifers and native trees like Pohutukawa, Manuka/Kanuka, Kauri, etc... so I guess I'll just have to experiment when I'm out innawoods 🤔
I live near a outdoor firing range. I'm not sure where you are but I have a guess that you might have water vine if you are in a sub tropical or tropical environment.
Aren't you already on the internet? You can drink this stuff all day every day. Once you boil the sap though, the syrup will be hard on the kidneys if over consumed. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=nordicfoodlab.org/blog/2013/5/tree-sap-seasonally-available-pulse&ved=2ahUKEwjBirvh6JroAhXEwqYKHRLdD_UQFjAKegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw2sO-pEFz2_PjkZkfPLHzc5
Given that oak trees arent a tapped tree I wouldn't go that route. I live in virginia. We have river birch along basically every consistent amount of water. Wild grape vines are another good alternative for water at the moment and they grow all over the place. I will do a video on one on the coming weeks

Birch is wild man. I felled an old birch one spring that was almost like a geyser.

Love this, thanx...
Doggie walking around sounds so refreshing to hear.

_"ants actually pack more protein than beef"_ resonates in my mind as I'm watching dozens of big, juicy ants working in my backyard...

I’m gonna practice this. I’ll need to review your other videos to learn how to get water durning summer/fall. Thanks!
Cool video Cody!!You understand how important trees are!!!
Great content
You're a wealth of knowledge man - another great video.
this is a great channel. cheers for the content/info
Awesome, thanks.

Very good to know, thank you.
Thanks bud for the video.

@@CavemanCody we fans don't mind the longer ones. I've pretty much seen them all. It's just good to see you still doing what you do.

No those trees wouldn’t work they do not yield sap
Glad it doesn't hurt the tree.
great vid
That's amazing!
Is the depth or angle of the hole important?
2:41 *schlop* *schlop* *schlop*
Then what do you do in the middle of the summer or the fall??
Very epic
are there any trees like that on the west coast?
I been wanting to try it with a bag like you did but I always forget to.
Can you do this to Willow trees? I am the Texas area.
If my information is correct, sap from pine trees is distilled to make turpentine, which dissolves red blood cells.
Hey, that's cool
Muscadine and Scuppernong vines will drip tons of liquid from them when clipped I am assuming this liquid is water I haven't tasted it.

Good to have gay woodsman like this to share this knowledge with us! Great video.
Does this work better if I play some Barry White while tapping that tree?
What state do you live in?
Is it work for everyone tree
Thanks for the info! Good to know in case COVID turns out to be the boogaloo
Greeting from 2023, we worried about WW3 now
To bad not during the summer but THANK YOU
I live up north, can you tap spruce? fir ? pine or aspen ? sap to drink ?
I wouldn't tap any kind of ever green.
I have heard of aspens being tapped before but I cant offer any first hand advice on it.
Florida trees?
What about pine?
Is it healthy to drink it daily? Got a PH Level for it too? Thank you in advance brother 🙏👊

Can you get water from oak tree I live in the south

how bout oak?
AND PLUG THE DAMN HOLE AFTER! the tree can bleed to death or get an infection
Wait till winter to get thirsty.
I wonder how things would turn out if I used that type of water to make mead with. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
👩🏾🙅🏾
That tree is bleeding.
Drinking from a maple will give you the shits city boy!
every father should teach his son this stuff. i feel sorry for city kids.
