Where The Wild Men Are With Ben Fogle ; Series 3, Episode 2 |
| Summary |
Ben Fogle joins married couple Mike and Fran Turner, who welcome him into their simple, self-built log cabin in Alaska. He discovers how they have created a self-sufficient lifestyle by working the land and trapping the animals around them. Despite battling against forest fires in the summer and freezing conditions in the winter, the family very rarely venture back into civilisation. Ben takes every opportunity to get stuck into forest survival, battling mosquitoes and learning to cope with 24-hour daylight. Deep in the woods, he chops trees, learns about trapping and deadly forest fires, feeds fish guts to the plants and even eats bear. (From the UK) (Documentary Series) PG CC |
