Transcript:
Cannibalism is one of those ultimate human taboos – and rumors of cannibalism are a lot more common than, you know, proven cases of ordinary people eating other people. Here are a few of the real ones:
Let’s get this out of the way: the Donner Party story is true. In November of 1846 this ill-fated expedition found themselves trapped in the California/Nevada mountains. First they ate the pack animals. Then the dogs. In a desperate attempt to survive, they made soup from boiled animal bone and hide. By Christmas, they were eating the bodies of the dead. Members of the group accused each other of murder, saying that people were being killed to guarantee that flesh would be, ahem. Close at hand.
Alferd Packer was another pioneer who sought his fortune out west, only to find terror in its place. In February 1847 Packer and five prospectors left a camp in Colorado to find gold in the Breckenridge mountains. Later that April, Packer, stumbled into another camp claiming a storm had hit, and everyone else had disappeared looking for food. Eventually he admitted that one person died and the group ate the body. Three more died of exposure, he said, and he killed one in self-defense. In August, authorities found the campsite… and the group hadn’t died of exposure. Instead, Packard had murdered – and eaten – the other five prospectors.
Survival cannibalism isn’t always a case of a few unfortunate people isolated without food. During the nearly three-year Siege of Leningrad, a million people died. The population slowly starved with no way to replenish the food supply. Gangs of starving citizens roamed the streets, and the city had to dedicate an entire unit to fighting cannibalism. 260 people were arrested for cannibalism, and parents kept their children inside at night for fear of kidnapping.
Cannibalism isn’t something restricted to centuries past, either. In 2008 thirty-three Dominicans set out in a fishing boat for a better life in Puerto Rico. Less than two days in, the engines malfunctioned. The boat drifted on open water for 6 more days before the first person died. The captain disappeared. People began dying daily. After two weeks at sea, 27 of 33 passengers died of starvation and dehydration. Driven to the brink of death, the five survivors decided to eat one of the last men to die. Ironically, they were found by the United States Coast Guard the next day.
These are just a few examples of survival cannibalism. If you’d like to read more about the grisly, disturbing history of exploration, check out our article “10 True Stories of Survival Cannibalism”, and subscribe so you don’t miss an episode of What The Stuff?!

After the break, Kyle details the horrific story of the Donner Party. In the spring of 1846, a group of nearly 90 emigrants left Springfield, Illinois, and headed west. Led by brothers Jacob and George Donner, the group attempted to take a new and supposedly shorter route to California. They soon encountered rough terrain and numerous delays, and they eventually became trapped by heavy snowfall high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Purportedly reduced to cannibalism to survive through the winter, only half of the original group reached California the following year. Their story quickly spread, and before long the term “Donner Party” became synonymous with one of humanity’s most ingrained taboos. Thanks for listening to Expanded Perspectives!

The Expedition of the Donner Party and its Tragic Fate
Eliza P. Donner HOUGHTON (1843 - 1922)
The Donner Party was a group of California-bound American settlers caught up in the "westering fever" of the 1840s. After becoming snowbound in the Sierra Nevada in the winter of 1846--1847, some of the emigrants resorted to cannibalism. Although this aspect of the tragedy has become synonymous with the Donner Party in the popular imagination, it actually was a minor part of the episode. The author was about 4 at the time. The first part of the book accounts the tragic journey and rescue attempts; the last half are reminiscences of the child orphan, passed from family to family while growing up.

Donner Party
The Donner Party (sometimes called the Donner-Reed Party) was a group of American pioneers led by George Donner and James F. Reed who set out for California in a wagon train in May 1846. Delayed by a series of mishaps and mistakes, they spent the winter of 1846–47 snowbound in the Sierra Nevada. Some of the pioneers resorted to cannibalism to survive.
The journey west usually took between four and six months, but the Donner Party was slowed by following a new route called Hastings Cutoff, which crossed Utah's Wasatch Mountains and Great Salt Lake Desert. The rugged terrain, and difficulties encountered while traveling along the Humboldt River in present-day Nevada, resulted in the loss of many cattle and wagons, and splits within the group.
By the beginning of November 1846 the settlers had reached the Sierra Nevada, where they became trapped by an early, heavy snowfall near Truckee (now Donner) Lake, high in the mountains. Their food supplies ran extremely low, and in mid-December some of the group set out on foot to obtain help. Rescuers from California attempted to reach the settlers, but the first relief party did not arrive until the middle of February 1847, almost four months after the wagon train became trapped. Of the 87 members of the party, 48 survived to reach California, many of them having eaten the dead for survival.

Transcript:
Cannibalism is one of those ultimate human taboos – and rumors of cannibalism are a lot more common than, you know, proven cases of ordinary people eating other people. Here are a few of the real ones:
Let’s get this out of the way: the Donner Party story is true. In November of 1846 this ill-fated expedition found themselves trapped in the California/Nevada mountains. First they ate the pack animals. Then the dogs. In a desperate attempt to survive, they made soup from boiled animal bone and hide. By Christmas, they were eating the bodies of the dead. Members of the group accused each other of murder, saying that people were being killed to guarantee that flesh would be, ahem. Close at hand.
Alferd Packer was another pioneer who sought his fortune out west, only to find terror in its place. In February 1847 Packer and five prospectors left a camp in Colorado to find gold in the Breckenridge mountains. Later that April, Packer, stumbled into another camp claiming a storm had hit, and everyone else had disappeared looking for food. Eventually he admitted that one person died and the group ate the body. Three more died of exposure, he said, and he killed one in self-defense. In August, authorities found the campsite… and the group hadn’t died of exposure. Instead, Packard had murdered – and eaten – the other five prospectors.
Survival cannibalism isn’t always a case of a few unfortunate people isolated without food. During the nearly three-year Siege of Leningrad, a million people died. The population slowly starved with no way to replenish the food supply. Gangs of starving citizens roamed the streets, and the city had to dedicate an entire unit to fighting cannibalism. 260 people were arrested for cannibalism, and parents kept their children inside at night for fear of kidnapping.
Cannibalism isn’t something restricted to centuries past, either. In 2008 thirty-three Dominicans set out in a fishing boat for a better life in Puerto Rico. Less than two days in, the engines malfunctioned. The boat drifted on open water for 6 more days before the first person died. The captain disappeared. People began dying daily. After two weeks at sea, 27 of 33 passengers died of starvation and dehydration. Driven to the brink of death, the five survivors decided to eat one of the last men to die. Ironically, they were found by the United States Coast Guard the next day.
These are just a few examples of survival cannibalism. If you’d like to read more about the grisly, disturbing history of exploration, check out our article “10 True Stories of Survival Cannibalism”, and subscribe so you don’t miss an episode of What The Stuff?!

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys talk about how one of the last known groups of woolly mammoths died out because of a lack of drinking water, scientists believe. The Ice Age beasts were living on a remote island off the coast of Alaska, and scientists have dated their demise to about 5,600 years ago. They believe that a warming climate caused lakes to become shallower, leaving the animals unable to quench their thirst. Then, what do you so with land that’s been rendered inhabitable by humans? The Ukrainian government has decided the best use of the 1,600 square mile “exclusion zone” surrounding the former Chernobyl nuclear power station is to build one the world’s largest solar power plants, according to Electrek. Then, Australia is to shift its longitude and latitude to address a gap between local co-ordinates and those from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Local co-ordinates, used to produce maps and measurements, and global ones differ by more than 1m. Then, Cam brings up an unusual Gnome encounter in the deep dark woods. After the break, Kyle details the horrific story of the Donner Party. In the spring of 1846, a group of nearly 90 emigrants left Springfield, Illinois, and headed west. Led by brothers Jacob and George Donner, the group attempted to take a new and supposedly shorter route to California. They soon encountered rough terrain and numerous delays, and they eventually became trapped by heavy snowfall high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Purportedly reduced to cannibalism to survive through the winter, only half of the original group reached California the following year. Their story quickly spread, and before long the term “Donner Party” became synonymous with one of humanity’s most ingrained taboos. Thanks for listening to Expanded Perspectives!

The Expedition of the Donner Party and its Tragic Fate
Eliza P. Donner HOUGHTON (1843 - 1922)
The Donner Party was a group of California-bound American settlers caught up in the "westering fever" of the 1840s. After becoming snowbound in the Sierra Nevada in the winter of 1846--1847, some of the emigrants resorted to cannibalism. Although this aspect of the tragedy has become synonymous with the Donner Party in the popular imagination, it actually was a minor part of the episode. The author was about 4 at the time. The first part of the book accounts the tragic journey and rescue attempts; the last half are reminiscences of the child orphan, passed from family to family while growing up.

Donner Party, Alkaline Trio
Donner Party
So it began this way, I can't recall how it got started
So it began this way, I don't recall a thing
And all in all I guess it's for the better
If you don't remember anything, sit and sing
There was a time when everything we did seemed second nature
There was a time when everything we did seemed free
And all in all I guess it's for the better
If you don't remember anything, sit and sing
And I wanted you to know
It was you that we were thinking of as we quietly died in the snow
A place we'd never leave
A place we'd never want to call home
A place we'd call a final resting place in pieces
So we began this way, I don't recall where we got started
And so we end this way no trace of us in spring
All in all, I guess it's for the better if you just can't feel a fucking thing
Fall asleep and die
And I wanted you to know
It was you that we were thinking of as we quietly died in the snow
A place we'd never leave
A place we'd never want to call home
A place we'd call a final resting place in pieces
And I wanted you to know
It was you that we were thinking of as we quietly died in the snow
A place we'd never leave
A place we'd never want to call home
