Hiking safety, eating on the trail?

[titch]

Should you eat while hiking if you know there are wild animals in the area.
What about apples?

i would eat trail mixing bez its so easy to eat and carry... not worry about wild animals in day time but ya have to worry about tat in night time, yeah i would recommend you to eat alot of fruit bez it give you alot of ENERGY also DRINK LOT LOT LOT water!

depends on what you are eating
i suggest trail mix while actually hiking
if you stop to camp for the night
eat what you want or can

I suggest anything that doesn't spoil. Granola, definitely. Trail mix is great on the go. It depends if you are camping or not. (if there are bears in the area, bring a slow friend.)
