Why except wilderness survival training from non-professional instructors? 1000's of individuals teach survival in North America, less than 100 are actual professional survival instructors. Of those very few are teaching Modern Wilderness Survival with scientific methods, cutting edge presentations, relaxed hands-on field training, and the teaching of potentially life saving techniques.
