HIKING DANGERS - Hiking with Bears, Alligators & Snakes
A hiker's odds of getting attacked by a bear, alligator or snake is less than having an accident on the highway. In most instances, a close encounter with a bear, alligator or snake is enhanced into a Super Story by the media.
But yes, there are circumstances that warrant extra caution when hiking in areas that are the homeland to certain aggressive wildlife.

Hike with a buddy;
Hike during daylight hours;
Don't eat while on your hike
