A 40-year-old Ohio man was lost for six days and nights in the Pacific Northwest. Rescuers found him in reasonably good shape. His family says that he was always interested in nutrition so they weren’t surprised that he survived by eating bees and berries.  (And you thought that bees were only good for making honey and pollinating flowers!)

Here’s the full story from UK’s Evening Standard.
