Pleistocene wolf head found |

A 40,000 year old fully intact wolf head was found in northern Siberia last year. Japanese scientists have now had a chance to examine it.
The severed head of the world’s first full-sized Pleistocene wolf was unearthed in the Abyisky district in the north of Yakutia.
Local man Pavel Efimov found it in summer 2018 on shore of the Tirekhtyakh River, tributary of Indigirka.
The wolf, whose rich mammoth-like fur and impressive fangs are still intact, was fully grown and aged from two to four years old when it died.

We shall talk about guns,ammo,optics etc...
"Black tip" bullets are still out there. 30 caliber rounds. Many left over from WW2 in 30-06 casings. Might be illegal in some states (make sure to check), but I hear you can cleanly pull the bullets from this old surplus ammo and load them into .308 casings. The weight is perfect at 165 grains. It's a hardened steel insert encased in copper. Highly devastating penetration capabilities. Here's an excellent video on the topic:

The Giant Beaver - new clues about its extinction |

The beaver is one of Canada's major national animal icons, symbolizing hard work, eagerness, and the fur trade with indigenous peoples. For over 70 years, the beaver has also been embossed on the Canadian nickel coin.
Prior to 10,000 year ago, there was a much larger cousin of the smaller modern beaver that ranged throughout most of North America. The Giant Beaver was one of numerous megafaunal animals that went extinct near the end of the last ice age. Their last place of refuge seems to be just south of the Great Lakes region in southern Ontario.
New research has discovered that the giant beaver (Castoroides) did not have the same diet as the modern beaver, and did not eat trees or construct niches for itself using wood. The giant beaver seemed to rely solely on aquatic plants and ponds for its survival. As the ice age receded, most of these ponds dried up, leaving very few refugia habitats left for the giant beaver to live. This suggests an important role for climate as a factor in its extinction.

Survival Lilly |

Lilly is an Austrian wilderness survival expert with a thriving primitive skills channel. She isn't quite as stone age as some others, but she is more personable and talkative and fun to watch. Lilly is based mostly in the forests of Austria and Germany, though she also travels to other countries and tropical islands to do videos. I recently watched her 6 day solo stay on Vancouver Island from 2016, which was interesting ("Hey bear!" lol).
There are a few other female survival skills channels on youtube, but I think Lilly's is one of the most popular. It's good to see more women getting into it, and provides a break from what can sometimes be a bit of a macho dominated genre.
I notice a lot of primitive skills channels are really becoming popular, with subscriptions over 500,000 and view counts in the millions.

I just started reading into post-civ anarchism the last few days. whats people on heres opinion/view on it? I like aspects to it such as post-civ are a lot more into permaculture and horticulture, I think it touches more on the matter of the ruins and left overs of civilization that will be left after civilization collapses and use the left overs in a DIY style, from what I'v read from AnPrims they don't go into this aspect much.
For myself in general I don't like to dwell on the idea to much of what the world will be like after civilization collapses because there's no way to determine what it might look like so it's a bit pointless. But still sometimes its fun to day dream.
