Cabeza De Vaca started out on a adventure and ended up on a doomed journey. De Vaca was a explorer on a Spanish expedition to the “New World” in the 1520’s. He was one of the only survivors. Cabeza lived through many circumstances for three reasons: his healing abilities, survival skills, and ability to befriend natives. These three reasons are what gave him the will to survive. Cabeza De Vaca had a unique set of wilderness skills. These skills allowed him to survive against all odds. One of the ways he survived was by hollowing out a horse leg. After hollowing it out he filled it with water and drink out of it. He crossed mountain ranges, meandered through deserts, and navigated through rushing rivers.
