Almost poisoned myself foraging last week 😅

Fellow hunters, reality check time... Was on a 3-day hunt, ran low on food by day 2. Went to grab some berries for emergency rations and almost picked the wrong ones - waxy leaves saved me from a toxic mistake. Made me realize my foraging safety knowledge got rusty. 🍄 Golden rule: If you can't 100% ID it, don't eat it. Those "similar looking" mushrooms? They're not worth the ER visit when you're miles from help. 🌿 Red flags: Milky sap, umbrella flowers, waxy leaves = nope. Your gut feeling is usually right. 🏭 Location matters: Stay away from roadsides and industrial areas. Plants are like sponges for all that nasty stuff. Anyone else combining summer scouting with foraging? #hunting #foragingtips #huntingseasonprep #wildedibles
