CBS today confirmed what many fans had already known for weeks -- that Survivor producers have opted for the quaint jungles of the Marquesas Islands (pronounced "mar-kay-sis") in French Polynesia. Specifically, a little chunk of South Pacific real estate known as Nuku Hiva (pronounced "nu-ku heeva").

Unlike cast members in the original Survivor on the South China Sea island of Pulau Tiga who had to depend on Richard Hatch's spear-fishing skills to keep them satiated, the new crew will have the opportunity to pull a Michael Skupin and hunt down some local fauna--including an assortment of wild cattle, pigs and hogs. (Consider yourselves warned, PETA.)
But it won't exactly be a tropical getaway. Those chosen to outwit, outlast and outplay on Survivor 4 will still have to endure Nuku Hiva's fierce whipping winds and a treacherous sea, along with the usual creepy-crawlies, friendly backstabbing and, perhaps worst of all, host Jeff Probst's smugness.
Survivor 4 will begin airing after the 2002 Winter Olympics finish airing on CBS in February 2002.
