    I remember two specific parts (sadly without many details):

    At one point, the protagonist kills an animal and finds himself staring at a particular organ, apparently craving the nutrients provided by that organ.

    At another point, he boils water in a leaf, observing that a leaf will never burn below the top of the water due to the water keeping the leaf moist.

    I probably should know whether either of those claims are realistic, but I’ve never been in a survival situation and I still don’t know to this day.
