When it comes to life skills, you also need to not only know how to hunt and stuff but you also have to know how to fight off people or predators if you need to. But you also have to have that determination to have that certain assertiveness to push yourself to fight sometimes. But you also need to have self-control when it comes to fighting. Some people don't know when to stop.
If you're alone in the woods, with no protection you need to have problem solving skills. What I would do is I would grab a stick and rock and start carving the tip of the stick into a sharp end. You also need to have decision-making skills as well. Say you're hunting and you come across a predator and you don't know what to do so you freeze. You need to make a decision quickly before it attacks you. Do you stand your ground and like big or do you run?
Say you're with a friend in the woods and you come across a predator like a wolf you do the following while having confidence in your friend:
Stay calm.
Back away slowly while facing the animal.
Leave the wolf a way to escape.
Pick up small children without bending down.
Raise your voice and speak firmly.
If the wolf approaches or acts aggressively, wave your arms and make yourself look larger. Shout, make noise and throw any available objects.
In the unlikely event that you are attacked by a wolf, fight back. Try to remain standing and use rocks, sticks, tools, camping gear and your hands to fend off the attack. Keep the animal away from your neck and head.
