Here's the video description from the website:

"Living off the land (1944).

Australia.

Men of Australian Imperial Force learn to survive in bush land. They cut down a tree and slice off a section, C/U of water dripping from the end, a man collects it in a tin, drinks it and passes it round. They chop at a root on the ground, various shots as they blow down one end and water comes out of the other, several of these can be used as a makeshift shower. M/S as man collects dew off leaves.

M/S as they cut and eat a celery like plant in the bush. M/S as officer strips bark from a tree and eats a fat white grub underneath. C/U as he holds a handful of grubs and the men tuck in, M/S as they eat them. Various shots as they follow a kangaroo, koala bear, snake and frog for food. Two of them see an elephant and rub their hands in glee, he walks off quickly."
