What should I do if I encounter wildlife while hiking

Sure! Here are four different responses:

"If you spot wildlife while hiking, just stay calm and keep your distance. Don't approach them, and try to enjoy the moment from afar. It’s all about respecting their space!"

"First off, don’t panic! Just back away slowly and give them some room. Most animals aren’t looking for trouble, so if you give them space, they’ll probably just wander off."

"Take a deep breath and remember to stay quiet. If it’s a bear or something big, make some noise to let it know you’re there, but don’t run. Just keep your cool and let it pass."
