 is a contestant from Survivor: Dueling Desert.

Profile

 * Name (Age): Tanya (49)
 * Tribe Designation: Wangi
 * Current Residence: Austin, Texas
 * Personal Claim Of Fame: Makin' my husband do all the cookin' and cleanin' while I'm out huntin'. It's a man's world but I ain't your typical lady who's goin' to listen to that.
 * Hobbies: Anythin' that puts me in the outdoors.
 * Pet Peeves: People who ain't got manners. In my day, we were taught respect, but kids now just run around actin' like they run the world and treat others like dirt.
 * 3 Words To Describe You: Fearsome, calculated, confident.
 * If you could have three things on the island, what would they be and why?: I'd bring my Marlin 336C huntin' rifle, the ammunition to keep it loaded, and enough barbecue sauce for whatever I kill for the tribe. We ain't ever goin' hungry if I got my baby with me.
 * Survivor Contestant you are Most Like: Take Keith Nale and cut off his pecker, then you dun got me. We're both country, we both know our way around the outdoors, and like him I'm goin' to be dang good at this game.
 * Reason for being on Survivor: I want to show the world what I got and bring home the million to send my kids off to college when they're old enough. I didn't ever get a fancy education but that ain't goin' to stop them from gettin' one.
 * Why do you think will be Sole Survivor: I'm built to last in the outdoors and know my way around the wilderness. I'll be too big of an asset to get rid of early, and later on they won't see me comin' when I take 'em out.
