2
3	!!Tropes:
4
5	* AbortedArc: This episode seems to set up Heather and Duncan for a new alliance, but it fizzles out after this episode.
6	* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Duncan laughs uncontrollably when Izzy accidentally shoots Heather in the butt with a tranquilizer dart.
7	* AnimalsHateHim: The local fauna don't take kindly to being tracked and captured by the campers. Owen gets the brunt of the animals' wrath when he's accidentally locked in the cage with them.
8	* BearsAreBadNews: Heather's animal.
9	* CallBack:
10	** In a confessional, Izzy recalls how she scared everyone dressed as a bear in "[[Recap/TotalDramaTheSuckyOutdoors The Sucky Outdoors]]".
11	** While helping Heather catch a bear, Duncan brings out a deer costume from "[[Recap/TotalDramaPaintballDeerHunter Paintball Deer Hunter]]" for Heather to wear. Izzy wears a camo cap and safety goggles from the same episode while tracking her animal.
12	* ChainsawGood: Duncan chooses a chainsaw to [[InsaneTrollLogic capture a raccoon]].
13	* CombiningMecha: [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext A group of Raccoons]].
14	-->'''Duncan''': [[{{Franchise/Transformers}} That's more than meets the eye.]]
15	* ContinuityNod: Izzy is still mad at Owen for shoving her to the Killer, though she clearly has forgiven him by the end of the episode.
16	* ImpossibleTask: Heather has to catch a bear, something that she complains about throughout the episode, especially when everyone else has to capture ([[KillerRabbit relatively]]) more docile animals such as frogs and ducks.
17	* ForegoneConclusion: Seeing the bottom two being Gwen and Izzy and Gwen having won immunity, it's a given that Izzy is being eliminated again.
18	* ImprobableWeaponUser: Before the challenge, Chris gave everyone a chance to pick a tool from the shed to catch their animal. While Izzy chose a tranquilizer gun, Gwen went for the duck bait, while Leshawna picked a bucket.
19	* InsistentTerminology: Owen, concerning his weight.
20	--> '''Gwen:''' ''(to Izzy)'' Wasn't that a 300 pound bag of joy talking to you just now?
21	--> '''Owen:''' ''(hanging from the trap above)'' I'm ''only'' 296!
22	* KillerRabbit: Owen's Chipmunk.
23	* LaserGuidedKarma: After wrecking Gwen's reward, Owen is attacked by all of the animals in the wooden cage the other contestants captured.
24	* LivingWeapon: The giant combined raccoon shoots raccoons at Duncan, one of which knocks him of a cliff (the same one he brings back as his animal).
25	* MaleGaze: After Heather gets hit with one of Izzy's tranquilizer darts, Heather's butt is front and center when Duncan and Izzy discover her passed out.
26	* PlotHole: Why was Gwen in the bottom two when she won the challenge and ''invincibility''? Furthermore, she promised just two episodes earlier Heather would be voted out whenever possible, yet Izzy ends up getting eliminated over her without so much a discussion.
27	* PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The title is a play on the film franchise ''Girls Gone Wild''.
28	* RascallyRaccoon: Duncan's animal, and they can form a CombiningMecha.
29	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Subverted. When Heather refuses to capture a bear, Chris informs her that there would be a penalty for campers who fail their challenge, and Heather responds with that she would prefer it over the challenge... until Chris reveals that the penalty is cleaning the [[DisgustingPublicToilet communal washroom]].
30	* ShootEverythingThatMoves: Izzy shoots everything other than her intended target animal. Izzy shoots tranquilizer darts at Chef Hatchet, a unicorn, an airplane, and Heather, who was wearing the deer tail and antlers from "Paintball Deer Hunter".
31	* ShotInTheAss: Heather winds up getting shot in the butt by Izzy's tranquilizer gun. The ensuing paralysis guarantees she loses the challenge.
32	* ShoutOut:
33	** Gwen's duck behaves like the Roadrunner from ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'', both in its running style and capabilities, and in the way it sticks its tongue out at Gwen and kicks up its heels before dashing off. In the Polish dub, Gwen actually compares the duck to the Roadrunner, mentioning him by name.
34	** Leshawna, in pursuit of her frog, falls down a [[Creator/LaurelAndHardy bottomless puddle]].
35	** Duncan says, "[[Franchise/{{Transformers}} That's more than meets the eye]]" as the raccoons join together as one.
36	** The roar that the assembled raccoons give out is similar to [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Godzilla's]].
37	** Geoff tells the beavers "[[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Beavers, don't make me angry... you wouldn't like me when I'm angry!]]".
38	** Izzy mentions her uncle tried to cut off his ear like Creator/VincentVanGogh.
39	* SmokeOut: Izzy after her elimination.
40	* SpannerInTheWorks: If Izzy had not shot Heather by mistaking her for a deer, it is heavily implied that either her or Owen would have finished last, given that the bear was chasing Heather.
41	* TemptingFate: After Owen says that he isn't afraid of Heather in the confessional, she comes around and yells at him to get out, scaring Owen a little bit.
42	* TriggerHappy: Izzy is ecstatic about finding a tranquilizer gun, which understandably worries everyone else. Aside from her general craziness, Izzy's trigger happiness leads to her elimination.
43	* VisualPun: Courtesy of Duncan:
44	--> '''Duncan:''' ''(to Heather)'' I can help bag a bear ''(pulls out fake deer antlers)'', dear.
45	* WheelOFeet: The duck that gets chased by Gwen is animated doing a wheel run.
46	* WidelySpacedJailBars: The cage reserved for the animals the campers have to capture is spaced so that it will hold a bear, an Owen, and a deer and maybe a beaver, but not a raccoon, or a duck, or a chipmunk, or a frog. Still, all the animals are kind enough to stay put in the cage.
47	* WorthyOpponent: Heather sees Duncan as this after he offers to help her finish the challenge.
48	* WoundedGazelleGambit: Heather does actually get paralyzed by Izzy's shot, but she pretends it lasts for much longer than it actually does to exploit her alliance with Duncan to get him to clean the communal showers for her.
49	* XanatosGambit: Duncan, concerning his one-episode alliance with Heather:
50	--> '''Duncan:''' It's what they call a win-win, she succeeds, and I have an alliance, she loses, and she gets eaten by a bear.
