How did Alexander Selkirk survive the first year on the Juan Fernandez Island?
Alexander Selkirk initially stayed near the coastline where hecould capture and eat fish. However, when a large group of matingsea lions inhabited the beach, Selkirk moved more inland. Thisproved to be a blessing because he encountered all sorts of foodsthat allowed him to eat well. He created bedding from barrel hingesand pepper tree leaves.
