Some very basic ones, I suppose. True survival skills are probably above the level of Cub-aged boys. They are taught to use the buddy system and stay put if they are lost. Older Cubs are taught to use pocket knives and build fires. But true, comprehensive survival skills are not taught until Boy Scouts (6th grade and up).

Technically "The Boy Scouts" [as in Boy Scouts of America] have not let girls in. Girls cannot be Boy Scouts and they cannot earn ranks such as Eagle Scout.

While it officially started in 1998, it split of from Exploring, keeping the traditional Scouting areas of Outdoors, Sea Scouts, Hobbies, Sports, and Religious in Venturing. Sea Scouts is the second oldest program in the BSA, starting in 1912, and falls under Venturing.

In the United Kingdom, the Scout Association has been co-educational at all levels since 1991. As to why, the World Organization of the Scouting Movement says that since mixed gender relationships are becoming socially acceptable, especially in school and professional life, Scouting has a role to play in helping young people prepare for that mixed social environment and are encouraging National Scout Associations to use a co-educational approach. - - -
