BIG NEWS!

7-Day Kangaroo Processing Intensive in Australia!
October 27th to November 2nd - Wangaratta, Victoria

Have you ever wondered what happens to the parts of an animal that don’t make it onto your grocery store shelves?
This 7-day course will provide you with the knowledge you need to break down an animal carcass efficiently, utilizing as much of the animal as possible. You will then have the opportunity to process a raw skin into soft, grain-on leather and learn the techniques needed to stitch this type of soft leather into a useful saw case. Live and learn from an expedition-style base camp run by Bushcraft Survival Australia.
"Through my teaching, I share the impressive technologies which were part of early humans everyday lives, and which can still be a part of ours."
