Is Discovery's Man vs. Wild a Hoax? {Gadling}

Aug 2nd 2007 9:23AM As a mother of a 10 year old daughter with whom I watch the show with great anticipation, (to see what we may learn and to see what crazy things Bear will do next) I am to an extent dissapointed if these alligations are true. With every show I feel we learn SOMETHING, regardless if it is something we will ever use.. it is nonetheless..informational and entertaining. I won't be mentioning these aligations to my daughter, though she may hear about them and we'll have to disguss them then. The longer she watches the more she may learn and that is what could save her life one day,truly all that matters to me. We will continue to watch him, as his show is much better than many offered up to hold the attention of a 10 year old. But each and every time from now on that I hear him say.."today I must find food" or "today I must find water" it will not be an honorable statement to me, as I can only assume that along with shelter comes room service.
