Photo by kiliiiyuyan / Matthew Forkin of the Living Wild project gathers saxifrage leaves for dinner in northeastern Washington State. Though hunter-gatherers are often pictured as big-game hunters, most calories were derived from reliable plant sources. Living Wild documents a group of 21st century hunter-gatherers as they rediscover traditional skills from the Paleolithic era. The movement, spearheaded by a woman named Lynx Vilden, is unified by its ambition to leave modernity behind for a return to primitive living—long enough to bring back lessons from simpler times. Follow me kiliiiyuyan for more from this "rewilding" movement and beyond.
