I love outdoors and going on nature hikes
Oh really I've went on a couple of nature hikes in Tennessee have you?
No but I have hiked in the Shawnee National Forest of Southern Illinois, it was beautiful.
Oh I'm sure I would love to do that. Any other places you have been?
I have been to the Garden of the Gods Wilderness, it is a parcel of land that is a "Wilderness Area"
Have you ever came across any dangerous animals hiking?
No, but I wouldn't want to encounter the Deathstalker, which is a dangerous scorpion.
That would be pretty scary. I know we were in West Virginia going up a trail Ididn't see it but people were coming down talking about they seen a mountain lion. Don't know if it was true or not.
Mountain Lions are very territorial and it is unwise to mess with one in general! 
I hope that you enjoy your next hiking adventures and stay safe.
