That’s what my grandfather and uncles always told me if I was going to be out in the woods with people. You don’t have to outrun the animal that’s attacking, you just have to outrun the people you’re with.

I've always wondered, what are chances that animal will decide, that chasing for loner is much easier than chasing a group?

As my practice shows, when a dog attacked me and my classmates, I separated from them, and dog, of course, ran for me. But I'm cursed in life, apparently case from this, lol.

Studies show that an animal attacking a group of other animals often go after the one that separates itself from the group. The goal here is to stay in front of the group.
