Making A Blowgun: Life In The Amazon Jungle

The Blowgun is one of the most recognizable hunting weapons in the Amazon jungle region. Kids generally learn at a very young age to use a blowgun by hunting insects and small animals. South American blowguns are different from ones we use in North America in that they are generally longer, and they are shot upwards into the trees. The mouthpiece doubles as a handle when shooting in this fashion. AMAZON JUNGLE PLAYLIST:
