0:00.0 | From Meat Eaters World News Headquarters in Bozeman, Montana, this is Cowell's Week in Review with Ryan Cal-Aye. |
0:18.7 | Here's Cal. |
0:20.7 | A 64-year-old mushroom forager had to be rescued by the Coast Guard after falling behind her foraging group and getting lost along the southern Oregon coast. |
0:30.7 | The woman has not been identified, but she was eventually found sheltering under a tree to keep warm after being lost in the woods for two days. |
0:38.3 | The search involved five separate law enforcement and emergency management agencies, |
0:43.4 | which deployed helicopters, ground crews, and canine units to search for the missing forager. |

1:37.2 | we just called it getting your bell rung. And I've always thought about how that very well could |
1:42.0 | have been the way I went out, all for the love of |
1:45.6 | mushroom. |
1:47.5 | It's unclear whether the woman in Oregon was able to bring home any woodland delicacies, |
1:52.3 | but another foraging story, this one from the United Kingdom, was quite a bit more |
1:56.8 | successful. |
