He’s lost 38 pounds since the first day, but if he gets a beaver, he’ll have a full belly and be able to rest his back for a few days. Tom’s worried that if he falls again, he could do serious damage.
His back hurts, and he had a sleepless night because he couldn’t get comfortable. ‘Alone’ Season 9 competitor Tom (Photo by: Brendan George Ko / The History Channel)ĭay 43: Tom took a nasty fall on Day 42 and he wakes on Day 43 still in a lot of pain.

She’s excited to have dinner, hopes it tastes good, and thanks the animal for its life while stroking the soft fur.īack at camp, she roasts the muskrat and says it tastes a lot like beaver. Karie uses her knife to finish it off and holds up her kill. The arrow hits its mark, and she crawls over to the muskrat while warning it not to go back into the water or bite her. A muskrat makes it onto the shore and Karie takes a shot. Bubbles appear, and she waits patiently for whatever is about to emerge. Karie finds a good spot on the bank and waits for any movement.

She teethers an arrow to her floating line so she can retrieve both it and a muskrat.
