On the Street

What are you most afraid of in nature?


JACOB HIRSCH

Other people being stupid, probably.

What do you mean?

I'm not really afraid of nature or animals, but other people not paying attention.


PRESTON LEFFLER

I'd say probably wildlife. Snakes are the biggest thing I'm probably afraid of.

What would you do if you saw one?

At that point, I don't know. If I'm out riding, there's pretty much nothing you can do except blow by it as fast as you can. If I'm walking, just try to avoid it.


MARY GRITTA

Poisonous things indigineous to an area I'm not familiar with, like spiders or snakes.

What would you do if you saw one?

Back up slowly and get out of there.


VERONICA CLARK

I guess coming across a big cougar or a bear.

What would you do in that situation

I would just slowly walk the other direction.


MIKE SMITH

Critters that can eat me.

What would you do if you saw one?

I would just freeze, I wouldn't know what to do.
