First decisions
If you are stuck in the jungle due to a plane crash, stay at the site of the plane to see if rescue
arrives and only start moving once you are certain no one is coming to the rescue.
If you are on foot and you know you are not far from a village or trail try to figure out where
you came from and get back to a point you recognize. This could be a stream or a high point
or a jungle trail.
Go through in your mind the last hour or so of walking and picture it in your head. What did
you see? What landmarks did you pass? Which direction was the sun in? Any memory will
help.
Look around you carefully and see if there is any evidence of where you came from, for
example broken branches. This may help you decide which direction to start moving in.
If nothing seems apparent then you need to pick a direction and keep going in a consistent
direction. If possible leave a note saying where you are going and what time it was. Travelling
in the jungle is very slow but with luck rescuers might follow you and find you.
Travel during the day and sleep at night. Heading downhill will likely lead to a stream which
you can follow until it becomes a river, which will lead you out of the jungle. The wider the
river the more likely there will be civilization.
Focus on something ahead of you to aim for and something behind you to walk away in order
to stay in a straight line and stop yourself walking in circles. Jungle travel can be very
disorientating and the fear factor creeps up if you are not confident in your movements.
Always feel you are in control of where you are going and justify it loudly to yourself.
The jungle canopy can make things quite dark and difficult to get your bearings so also look
for some high ground where you might see a depression where there could be a river.
Follow animal trails
Look for animal trails left by animals in the jungle, and follow them if they are heading in the
same direction as you. They might lead to water sources or open areas where you might
more easily be seen by rescue parties. Carry a stick to push away any plants in your way and
as an aid for balance.
Clambering over fallen tree trunks is a very common way to have an accident. Try to avoid
using your hands, many plants will sting or prick you.
Sunstroke, sunburn, heatstroke and dehydration are all very easy to fall prey to, so always
keep your clothes on, especially covering your head and neck. Ants, snakes, venomous
spiders, plants with spines or thorns are all quite common in the jungle so use a stick to help
get through vegetation and dont grab things with your hands. A cut or bite or sting could
quickly lead to infection.
Mosquitoes spreading diseases like malaria, dengue, and yellow Fever. Use repellent if
possible or rub mud on exposed skin to avoid bites, and wear long-sleeved shirts and trousers
and tie a shirt over your head to it covers your shoulders. At night, use a mosquito net if you
have one or use sap from a camphor or eucalyptus tree.
Falling trees and branches are the most common reason for injuries in the jungle, so choosing
a night camp is important. Keep on clear ground.
Common perils in rivers or streams include slippery rocks, submerged branches, strong
currents, leeches and possibly larger animals like crocodiles. Keep footwear and clothes on
and use a stick for balance and choose your crossing point carefully. Dont cross rivers more
than knee deep unless absolutely necessary.
