Going Hiking..What to bring?

Read up on the area in which you'll be hiking. Know what kind of animals you might come across and then read up on their behaviour and first and foremost learn how to avoid them. If you're going hiking now, most animals should be fairly complacent as mating season is over and most young ones have grown up a bit.
If you're going hiking alone, make sure your family and friends know where you'll be, what route you're planning on taking and when to expect you home. This ensures that if something does happen to you, help will be on the way faster and they'll have a good idea where to look for you.
 
Bring:
boots, or other suitable footwear
waterproof clothing
plenty to eat
plenty of water to drink

As for the protection against wild animals, carry a pointed stick with you. Bring a knife with you, although try not to use it. :(
Also carry a first aid kit with you.

Hope this helped :)

if you need to protect yourself against wild animals you may want to bring a pistol, cuz you will never know what type of animal

also make sure you bring a flair gun just encase
