Every day Wild

Rufus and the Crocodile/Mastering the hunt with humility


Listen Later

You are 8 or 9 years old. Walk into the jungle with nothing. Hunt a Crocodile for food. Do this without killing. 

In this episode Rufus Bannah shares some of his incredible intitiation story. 

This story explores the distinction between hunting, as Rufus was taught, and the acts of killing that we are each linked to as consumers of food, whether with malevolence, detachment or guilt. 

Humilitas, the Latin word root for humility, can also be interpreted as "grounded", or "from the earth" (hummus).
