    Episode 92: SOS- The Bear Outside the Cabin

    Imagine being completely alone in the Alaskan wilderness. No cell service. No roads. No neighbors close enough to hear you scream. Just a tiny tin shack surrounded by miles of mountains, rivers, and forest—and somewhere outside... a brown bear. You’ve already survived its attack once. You’ve already watched it overturn your ATV like it was nothing. You’ve already felt the freezing water close around you as your vehicle, your trailer, and your cellphone disappeared beneath the surface. And now you're injured. Exhausted. Trapped. And the bear keeps coming back. Night after night. For an entire week. You have no way to call for help. And eventually, you realize you’re running out of options—and ammunition. Tonight on Wilderness Bonescapes, we're heading deep into the remote wilderness of western Alaska, where one man's routine trip to his mining cabin became a terrifying week-long battle for survival. A brown bear attack. A submerged ATV. A shattered lifeline to the outside world. Sleepless nights trapped inside a flimsy shack. And a rescue that came down to a helicopter crew looking in exactly the right direction... at exactly the right moment. This is the story of Richard Jessee—and the brown bear that wouldn't leave him alone. So turn down the lights. Turn up the volume. And whatever you do don't go into the wilderness alone..

    E91:When the Tiger Charges

    Deep within the frozen forests of Russia's Far East lies one of the last true wildernesses on Earth. For fourteen years, one wildlife biologist had dedicated his life to protecting the critically endangered Siberian tiger. He had safely captured and released nearly seventy of these elusive predators. He knew their behavior. He understood their instincts. He respected their power. Then one October morning, everything he thought he knew was put to the ultimate test. A routine check of a remote trap line, a low growl echoing through the trees, a 400-pound tiger that wasn't supposed to be able to move, and in the blink of an eye, the hunter became the hunted. What happens when one of nature's most powerful predators charges at thirty miles an hour? This is the incredible true story of a man who came face-to-face with one of the most feared predators on Earth and lived to tell the tale. Join us as we step into the forests of Primorsky Krai, where every shadow could hide an apex predator and one split-second decision meant the difference between life and death. .

    E90: Surviving Days After A Bear Mauling

    Imagine surviving an attack by a mother brown bear and her two cubs, that was so brutal, rescuers assume you're already dead. Now imagine spending seven days crawling through one of the most unforgiving wildernesses on Earth. In the summer of 1908, Captain William "Wabash Bill" Royden stepped onto Alaska's legendary Admiralty Island with one simple goal—bring fresh venison back to his crew. Instead, he walked straight into the path of a mother brown bear protecting her cubs. What followed was a savage mauling that left him with 64 wounds and injuries so horrific that surviving should have been impossible. For the next week, Wabash Bill would battle raging fever, starvation, relentless rain, and the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness. He would survive on berries... a snail... and a fish that seemed to fall from the sky at exactly the moment he needed it most. And just when rescue was finally within sight...hope began to sail away. This is the unbelievable true story of one of the worst bear attacks in Alaskan history—and the man who simply refused to die. This is the story of Wabash Bill.   .

    E89: 11 Hour Crawl for Help Guided by His Dog

    He'd driven this trail a hundred times. He knew every bend. Every stream crossing. Every ridge. So when his side-by-side suddenly started sliding backward down the mountainside,  he knew exactly what was about to happen. The machine flipped... Again. And again. And again. When the dust settled, it looked like a bomb had gone off. The roof had been ripped away. The tires were scattered across the forest. His phone... gone. His satellite communicator... gone. His radio... gone. His gun... gone. His left leg was twisted at an impossible angle. His right ankle collapsed beneath him. And he was stranded miles from anyone who could hear him scream. But he wasn't alone. Standing beside him, somehow completely unharmed after one of the most violent rollovers imaginable, was Buddy. His loyal dog. With darkness closing in and no hope of calling for rescue, Schmitt faced an impossible decision. Lay there and die... Or drag himself through miles of bear country with two shattered legs. For the next eleven hours, one man and one small dog would battle pain, exhaustion, wildlife, and the unforgiving wilderness in a fight that neither of them was supposed to survive. But the most incredible part of this story isn't how he escaped. It's who refused to let him give up. This is the unbelievable true story of survival, loyalty, and the dog who may have saved his best friend's life one painful step at a time  .

    E88: Surviving A Double Bear Mauling

    Imagine hiking through mountains you've known your entire life. You've spent decades working these trails. You know every ridge, every meadow, every sound the forest makes. You've trained for bear country. You've done everything right. Then, without warning, a 300-pound grizzly bear explodes out of the trees. You survive the attack. Or at least...you think you do. As you're making your escape—bleeding, shaken, and believing the nightmare is finally over—you hear the unmistakable sound of crashing brush behind you. The same grizzly is coming back. This isn't just another bear encounter. It's one of the rarest and most terrifying wildlife attacks imaginable—a documented double grizzly mauling, where the victim survives the first attack only to be attacked a second time. Sometimes, even perfect preparation isn't enough. So grab a seat, keep your bear spray close and let's step into grizzly country. .

    E87: Shot And Left To Die in the Amazon

    The Amazon Rainforest. The largest jungle on Earth. A place where rivers stretch for thousands of miles, where jaguars stalk silently through the shadows,  where anacondas disappear beneath dark water, and where entire villages can be days away from the nearest hospital. For most people... Nature is the greatest threat. But sometimes... The most dangerous predator isn't hiding in the jungle. It's another human being. South African adventurer Davey du Plessis set out on an extraordinary mission—to kayak the mighty Amazon from its source high in the Andes all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. More than 4,000 miles through one of the wildest places on Earth. For nearly two months, everything went according to plan. Then, on one seemingly perfect afternoon, a strange bird began following his kayak. It landed. Waited. Flew ahead. And waited again. Davey had no idea... He was being watched. Moments later... A deafening blast ripped through the jungle. He plunged into the Amazon, unable to move his arms, convinced they'd been hacked off. When he finally reached the surface, there was no one in sight. Just silence. Then another shot. Bleeding from dozens of shotgun wounds, with pellets lodged in his face, lungs...and even his heart...Davey fled into one of the most unforgiving jungles on Earth. No map. No help. No way to call for rescue. Only one thought echoed through his mind... "This is where I'm going to die." But surviving the shooting... Was only the beginning.  .

    E86: Sierra Nevada Rattlesnake Bite

    Imagine you're fifteen miles deep in the Sierra Nevada wilderness. No roads. No cell phones. No way out. You've spent the day chasing trophy trout with your best friend and your twelve-year-old son. The river is crystal clear, the weather is perfect, and life couldn't be better. Then, in a single heartbeat... Something hidden beneath a rock strikes. A rattlesnake. The venom begins spreading almost instantly. Your leg swells. Your body starts to go numb. The nearest hospital is hours away, your horses are gone, and the only hope of survival is that someone can find you before the venom wins. we journey back to the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the summer of 1962 to tell the astonishing true story of a father whose simple fishing trip became one of the most incredible rattlesnake survival stories ever documented. And the terrifying reminder that in the wilderness, the greatest danger is often the one you never hear.  .

    E84: 100 Miles Through Hell

    A small plane takes off from Uganda, carrying ten people toward what should have been an ordinary business trip. But 45 minutes into the flight, something goes terribly wrong. The pilot’s voice turns frantic over the radio.  The aircraft drops lower. And then, a deafening crash echoes through the mountains. The plane is torn apart by the jungle. Passengers are injured. The wreckage disappears into one of the most remote and dangerous landscapes on Earth. And somehow… One woman walks away without a single scratch. Her name is Rosebell Kirungi. But surviving the crash was only the beginning. With no food. No shelter. No way of knowing if rescue would ever come, Rosebell finds herself trapped deep in the Rwenzori Mountains, surrounded by freezing temperatures, endless jungle, and dangers hiding beyond the trees. One by one, the survivors begin to disappear. Rosebell is about to learn that the wilderness took something from her… Something she would never get back. .
