To escape danger in the forest
When trapped in a tree and confronted with wild animals or venomous snakes, it's crucial to remain calm and implement safety measures. Here are some suggestions to protect yourself in such situations:
1. Facing Wild Animals:
Stay silent and limit movement: Avoid making noise or sudden movements, as this can attract the attention of wild animals.
Avoid direct eye contact: Many animals perceive direct eye contact as a challenge. Look down or away to minimize the risk of an attack.
Find a safe hiding spot: If possible, move to a higher part of the tree or an area with dense foliage to conceal yourself.
Wait until the animal leaves: Be patient and refrain from actions that might provoke the animal. Once they sense no threat, they are likely to depart.
2. Facing Venomous Snakes:
Maintain a safe distance: If you spot a snake nearby, keep your distance and avoid approaching.
Create gentle vibrations: Use a long stick or your foot to tap lightly on the ground or tree trunk, creating vibrations that encourage the snake to leave.
Do not attempt to catch or attack the snake: Such actions can provoke the snake to defend itself by attacking.
Observe and wait: Snakes typically do not attack unless threatened. Wait for the snake to move away before continuing your activity.
