Small Game Hunting Emergency Kit

from: Maxx Sports Guides



Small game hunting isn't necessarily a dangerous activity but it does require you to carry an emergency kit in case it's needed to cover a wound or to have a small bandage available when needed.

Here are some basic items you should include in your emergency kit for a small game hunt to ensure the everyone's safety.

If You Get Wounded

If you incur the type of wound that needs immediate attention, start by cleaning it thoroughly. Cleaning a wound is vital to keep the skin free from bacteria and germs that -- if not washed -- could become infected. Don't forget to ask a professional for advice regarding a serious injury. Anti-bacterial soap is the best type to include in an emergency kit.

Material used for bandages should also be included in every emergency kit. The most important detail to remember regarding wounds that need to be bandaged is that they must be cleaned well first and as regularly as possible. There are emergency kits available that include bandages. These can be found at your neighborhood grocery stores, drug stores or Walmart and include all the necessary items including Band-Aids.

When In Pain

Relieving pain is easy enough. An average pain medicine reliever is capable of relieving pain for four to six hours. It's a necessary item to include in every emergency kit. Pain relievers are very inexpensive and the packages contain about a hundred pain reliever tablets. The cost of all the pain relievers, bandages, as well as anti-bacterial soap is usually about three dollars.

Emergency Shelters

It's best to include a shelter of some type in an emergency kit since surviving the elements is one of the key issues when small game hunting. A tent or tarp made of plastic would be good. Pegs preferably made of steel to raise the tent stand are also necessary. These pegs could also serve as an effective weapon to protect yourself during emergencies.

So don't leave without an emergency kit when going out to do some small game hunting.
