Jungle

I was on a bus and there was a guy sitting in front of me. He had weather-beaten swarthy skin, brown sort of dreadlocks and quite scruffy clothes. I asked him if he had been hunting in fields or tundra, and he took down his headphones and said "jungle". I was really impressed by this so he started to tell me his story of the jungle; as he was talking I was watching the story unfold. He said something like:

"When I was in the jungle of New Guinea (?) I stayed with the elusive tribespeople to learn their ways."
