This may have been discussed already. I was watching Naked and Afraid on Discovery Chanel. I missed the intro of the show . I assumed it was in Africa. I was watching and thinking how the terrain looks like my ranch in Rock Springs, TX. Turns out it was filmed in Texas. Titled "Texan-Torture" I'm guessing it had to be someplace in Edwards County. Does anyone know the location it was filmed? Anyone else watch the episode? https://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/naked-and-afraid/full-episodes/texan-torture

I saw it, looked to me like it was filmed somewhere in the hill country on a high fence ranch.

I am always amazed with that show, in that the last thing they think about caring for is their feet. I cringe at some of the stuff I see them walk thru, on their way to catch a minnow or frog for food!

Wonder why they didn't pick a ranch in deep south Texas? Probably because they wouldn't be able to move 10' from where they got dropped off!

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

I haven't watched more than two minutes of that show....sometime after it first started I was flipping thru channels and stopped on an episode....watched a couple of minutes... They were going on and on about having to find water or they would be in serious trouble....and I'm thinking, yup I'm sure the camera crew is dying of thirst.....  I just kept on flipping....was not the least bit impressed....I'll turn the TV off before I watch another minute of that BS....

Just did a quick google search and found a thread on reddit. Someone commented and said they were on the Ox Ranch in Uvalde County.
Went to their website and they've got one of those instant messenger pop-ups, so I just asked if they were the ranch where it was filmed and the fella named James on the other end confirmed that it was. By the looks of their website it looks like the type of place that would host that show.

Ive watched it a number of times. I love how they edit in clips of dangerous animals...that don't live in the country they are filming in!  Like a badger in the jungles of Colombia! Or an Eyelash Viper in Louisiana! etc.etc!!

I don't think they could last long enough in the wilds if they were put in the thick woods of east Texas. Between the chiggers and ticks and everything else that eats on you they would just be spending all their time scratching.
