If you encounter wildlife while riding, what is the safest course of action?

  1. Chase the animal away

  2. Continue at the same speed

  3. Stop and wait for the animal to move away

  4. Take a detour off the trail

The correct answer is: Chase the animal away

While it may seem counterintuitive, chasing the animal away is the safest course of action. This is because stopping or continuing at the same speed can startle the animal and potentially lead to a dangerous encounter. Taking a detour off the trail also increases the risk of getting lost or encountering other dangers. It is important to remember to be cautious and respectful when encountering wildlife, but also to assert your presence and make noise to scare off the animal.
