I plan to eat the Moas, just like last time.
[/QUOTE]
What are the Moas planning? Does it involved A-1 sauce?
Somewhere in the south pacific, where the weather is constantly lovely and hopefully the main predators are just beyond the barrier reefs.

Not if I sauce them first.
Coastal British Columbia. I’d take big bolts of waterproof cloth suitable for tents, boats, clothing, etc., full sets of woodworking tools, fishing tackle and hunting arms, and Alicia Witt.
I’d probably choose one of the smaller Hawaiian islands.
I believe I read that on small islands, all animals tend to evolve to about the same size (about the size of a medium-small dog) so you’ll get large lizards, small elephants, and such. And rather enjoying my life, having all the wildlife be of a size that is large enough to block with a simple fence, and small enough to win a fight against, would be good. And then, of course, there’s a pretty good quantity of edible food available on the trees (I believe) and of course good fishing and some easy hunting.

And no way off in Volcano Season.
No, thanks.
Stable geology for me, thanks.
What are you doing for food? Assuming you have to make do with what is already on Earth 2, then logically you would want to settle somewhere in the fertile crescent, where agriculture arose originally on Earth 1.

You ate the moas last time? :eek:
Cornwall will do for me. Mild winters, moist summers, sea fishing, tin and copper.

As did I.
The Moa, the merrier, you know.
Earth 1. I have no intention of living in the wilderness by myself. I also have no outdoorsman skills to speak of. Put me alone in a wilderness planet and I’ll be dead within the month.

Uh-huh. :dubious:
And you had to eat the adult birds, 'cos their eggs stinked.
My home town, Ventura, California. Beautiful climate, very Med like, rivers flowing down out of canyons for water, lots of available seafood, Channel Islands close by, so I’d need a decent sailboat and fishing tackle. The Chumash lived pretty damn well there for a long time as hunter-gatherers.

And you watch out for Moa & Giant marsupial predators!
[/QUOTE]
No native marsupials (predatory or any other kind) in New Zealand.

Hey, I plan to keep one in my yard, to keep the grass in check by grazing. All I’m sayng is, eat all the wild ones you want, but don’t you dare touch my lawn moa.
If food and shelter is provided and I legally own the land, then on top of any large oil-field.
