Caloric Analysis of Chris McCandless

The following documents represent my caloric analysis of Chris McCandless. 

Based on these calculations, McCandless definitely could have died of starvation. In fact, my calculations indicate he could have eaten up to 454 more calories everyday from either vegetation or hunted meat that he did not document. Even eating 454 more calories, his average calorie deficit per day would have been 287 calories. This would have resulted in the necessary calorie loss of 32500 calories over the entire period. Hence, he would have lost 65 lbs. This allows him to be down to 67 lbs after losing water weight and slight decomposition when found. All in all, McCandless could have died from starvation.
