Avoid cannibalism

The most obvious way to avoid cannibalism on an island is to not engage in it. Cannibalism was used in the past as a survival tool for many who did not have other means to feed their families. As time passed, however, cannibalism was more common among sailors as well as islanders. The islanders found that human flesh tastes a lot like pork. In order to make their food more like pork, the islanders dug fresh graves and stole people's bodies. This not only helped them survive but also allowed them to have good food without the need to hunt.


Cannibalism is still practiced by some cultures. However, it should be noted that cannibalism has a negative reputation and is often accompanied by false allegations that serve to vilify entire groups. While there isn't any evidence to suggest that cannibalism causes health problems, there are some risks.

A shelter should be built

The first and most important tool in your survival kit is a shelter. Because heat is lost when you are wet, the shelter must be as dry as possible. The shelter should be high enough for rescuers to see and insects to avoid. One of the easiest shelters to build is a tree shelter. This shelter is simple to build. It requires large trees that have been cut over to make the roof, and large branches for the walls.

Fire is another essential item you'll need to survive on an island, but if it's raining, a shelter will keep the fire lit. It will also protect your supplies from the watery environment. This will keep you from wandering around the island looking for dry fuel. You will be able to heat your body with a fire, but also have shelter from predators.
