It's better they don't "jog" at all. Dang city slickers go out to the big sticks like they're in a city park back home, thinking all the critters are like they are in a Disney cartoon  - WRONG. The predator class of forest fauna perceives a jogging or running human as food making a getaway and react accordingly. Bicyclists are not safe either - I know out Yellowstone Park way a number have been closelined or chased down by the big Yogis in the past. Some of those pedal pushers didn't survive the encounter. Some years ago, in the early 1990's I think, out in the sticks of western Wyoming during the winter someone got tracked down and killed by a pack of coyotes and several years after that I know of another incident where a coyote pack patiently tracked and closed in on someone who was out seeing the winter sights via snowshoeing their way through the same boonies, but skunked them when he made it out of the woods and to his truck before they could jump him. Best way to look at it is when out in the big woods amongst the really wild creatures, you are on their turf, so plan accordingly, stay alert and don't do any dumb stuff that may interest or provoke them in a dangerous manner.

But if you do, remember.. peace is through superior fire power.......:-)

You appear to be the only one here who understands that the predator class will attack anything it thinks is afraid and fleeing from them.

“when out in the big woods amongst the really wild creatures, you are on their turf”

I don’t see it that way.

God gave us dominion over animals. The second amendment creates the additional benefit of enforcing that dominion.
