Reviews
WildNet.Earth Review Policy
Each rating result ranges from 1 to 10. The overall rating for a course is calculated by adding up all the ratings submitted and dividing them by the number of ratings. We use a weighted system: more recent ratings have a greater influence on the overall result.
Participants can also submit sub-ratings for important course areas – such as organizer communication, course management, content & learning progress, procedure & implementation, venue, catering, and accommodation. Sub-ratings and overall ratings are assigned independently of each other and are not necessarily directly related.
Participants can submit a review if they have taken part in a course via WildNet.Earth – even if they have not completed the course in full. In addition, participants can verify themselves and also write reviews even if they have not booked via WildNet.Earth. Changes to reviews that have already been submitted can only be made via WildNet customer service.
To prevent bias, WildNet.Earth uses processes that identify fake or unreliable reviews. Such content will be deleted and measures may be taken against those responsible. Suspicious posts can be reported to customer service by anyone at any time.
We publish both positive and negative reviews, unless they contain or refer to:
- Politically sensitive content
- Advertising
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive data (e.g., phone numbers, email addresses)
- Insults, obscene language, sexualized content, hate speech, discrimination, threats, or violence
- Spam or obviously fake content
- Identity theft
- Any violation of our rating guidelines
Guidelines and standards for reviews
These guidelines ensure that reviews on WildNet.Earth remain relevant, fair, and respectful—without restricting freedom of expression.
Contributions should have a clear connection to the course or experience and help other participants make an informed decision. Personal attacks, religious or political statements, advertising, or support requests (to the organizer or WildNet.Earth) do not belong in reviews and will be removed.
Posts must be suitable for a global audience. Obscenities (even in creative writing) and content that contains hate, discrimination, violence, sexual depictions, or illegal activities are not permitted.
All content must be authentic, independent, and unbiased. Organizers and their partners may not create reviews on behalf of their participants or offer incentives for reviews. Attempts at manipulation (e.g., negative reviews against other organizers) will not be tolerated.
Personal data of third parties may not be published. Copyrights must be observed—published content, especially images, may only be used if the corresponding rights have been obtained.
The opinions expressed are solely those of participants and course providers. WildNet.Earth accepts no liability for reviews or responses. WildNet.Earth acts as a distributor, not as a publisher of content.
Reviews are sorted according to recency and other relevance criteria (e.g., language, reviews with text, etc.). Additional sorting options may be available.

About the Organizer
4 Elements Earth Education
4 Elements Earth Education (4EEE) is a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit. Home of the Fox Walkers Youth Programs, CA and Coyote Tracks Youth Programs, PA/ NJ Our Mission is to offer programs that guide Children, Families, and Teens toward a pure connection to the Earth through direct experiences in Nature.
4EEE offers programs that introduce Earth Skills, which are a blend of the ancient arts of tracking, wilderness survival, and nature awareness. Our curriculum and experienced instructors give children, teens and adults first-hand experience of how to 'read' the landscape as stewards of the Earth. Through our programs, a re-thinking of our relationship to nature begins to occur. Nature is not simply a resource that we control as a product; it is a relationship we must cultivate. At 4EEE we offer the tools for our youth to be self-reliant in the natural world through learning the 4 Elements of survival: Shelter, Water, Fire, and Food. This creates a foundation for a young person to find their vision in life
Indigenous Values and Accountability : As a non-profit organization that teaches Earth Skills, we firmly believe that we are intrinsically bound to honor Indigenous Peoples, as this is where we gained our teachings from. Don Ryberg, Chairman of the Siakumne Tribe and Juan Villarreal of the Southern Lipan Apache are active Board Members of 4EEE.
4EEE and the Siakumne Tribe are in partnership with the common goal of educating ourselves and our youth. In this endeavor 4EEE has agreed to the entire Burton Educational Preserve to be sanctioned by the Siakumne Tribe and thus the entire ancient Village site to continue as it had under the Indigenous Land Stewardship ways for thousands of years. For 15 years 4EEE has been in collaboration with the Lipan Apache Tribe offering youth programs. 4EEE is moving towards a long term partnership with the Tribe and creating programs at the "Red Sun " ranch with Juan Villarreal in South Texas.
