A primitive blade challenge on day one sends a pair of competitors home; survivalists learn that sharing is not allowed in this competition; racing to retrieve bows cached in a 30-foot tree.
Survivalists search elephant scat and test their bushcraft skills in a bird trap challenge; to get an edge in the challenge, Dan and Ky make a trade; Gary is the first to score a hunting win; gale-force winds force a survivalist from the competition.
Survivalists must craft a primitive axe that can fell a tree; Jeff makes a play to get a bow; a deep gash on Dan's hand threatens his challenge; Trish's camp crafts a fish net; a competitor is eliminated.
Territorial baboons mount a nocturnal attack, forcing survivalists to abandon their boma; competitors must craft a four-pronged spear to secure a catfish; a punishing challenge triggers an ambulance evacuation during an African heatwave.
Bitter rivals Dan and Jeff must work together to grab a key survival item; Darrin's injury slows his camp and puts his challenge at risk; when Dani refuses to trade assets, Gary plots to get the others to feed him, leading to an explosive standoff.
An elimination challenge tests survivalists' bow-hunting and game-processing skills; when two camps secure warthogs, one quickly preserves its win; the other camp's meat spoils, making someone ill.
