The first man that comes to our mind who went against the wild throughout our childhood is Bear Grylls. This man with his trademark show “Man v/s Wild” became the hero of many and came to be known as the born survivor. Though his show ‘Man v/s Wild’ can never be replaced by any other show but for the survival show lovers there are a few more Man against wild TV Shows.

So, let us have a look at the 5 shows where once again Man was against the wild!

The Canadians have their own ‘Bear Grylls’ known as Les Stroud who has been teaching them and later the whole world the art of survival through his show ‘Survivor Man’.
The show was telecasted first in Canada via the local channel and then internationally through Discovery. Throughout the 7 seasons from 2005 to 2015 in each episode, he used to survive for 10 days in a remote location without any food, water, and equipment. The USP of the show is that Stroud himself performed the shooting without any production crew.
