of the “created” that is around us:
level ground trees, mountain, wood and forest, pasture, and however, we have to
take care about what we could find in that places, as: which kind of animal stand in
that area or which kind of tree born in the same pl ace.
In this way, analysing and knowing what you are walking trhough, we can be safe and
sure of environment that surround us.

place and it focus the water’s cycle. Furthermore, it grows, reproduce, get sicks and
die. For that, the most important enemies are: fire, insects, climbing plants and
humans.
LANDS AND ENVIRONMENT:

for the night.
We need to observe which environment is more favourable for us: good level ground,
to permit a good and safe position of tend; water point, necessary for our vacancy; far
away from beds of rivers, to avoid any problems about big rains and to save the life
against unexpected overflows of rivers.
