HOW TO PLAN YOUR PERFECT WILDLIFE CAMPING TRIP

 Solitude, a beautiful sunset and sunrise, and clean air to breathe are one of the many joys of camping in a remote place. The wilderness has a special healing power with the solitude it offers. In these times of being always busy, when one manages to take out some time for wildlife camping, it should be special and well planned. Coronavirus has brought everything to a standstill except for socially-distanced activities, like wildlife camping. Therefore, to make the most of this one of the very few activities not forbidden by the government, one should plan it perfectly to have an amazing camping trip.

Planning should be done on two fronts -- preparing for the trip and planning for the camping site.

GETTING READY

This holds true for every endeavour, that is, be fully prepared. From choosing a favourable camping spot to getting permissions for wildlife camping, are some of the activities that should be undertaken. Not all camping sites give permissions to camp in their area all year round. In the United Kingdom itself there are areas that allow camping for only twenty eight days a year.
After finding a spot and getting permissions to set up a camp, intimate someone you know for times of emergency. This piece of information can be highly useful for a rescue situation.
Carry essential supplies like food, a first aid kit, waterproof matches, handmade scissors, additional set of clothes, extra batteries, an extra map and a cozy sleeping bag to have a great trip.

CAMPING CODE

This plan entails everything that should be done at the camping site. Choose a campsite that has the kind of view you have been longing for. It should not be too close to a populace that could take away the essence of a wildlife camp, nor should it be an extreme remote area that has too many wild animals around or troublesome weather. Ideally a fresh water body should be near to the camping site. Check for any waste upstream to avoid infections. The crucial rule of wild camping is to not leave any non biodegradable waste behind. Also if fire is lit for any purpose, no trace should be left behind. A lot of forest fires have been caused due to careless, incomplete extinguishing of fire in the past.

Camping sites are a habitat to thousands of plant and animal species. These vast areas of wilderness have some species of animals that can be easily hunted. A tactical bowie knife can be very useful in hunting small animals if one runs out of food supplies.


 Wildlife camps are a bliss and a much needed respite from this fast paced world. Therefore they should be well planned and executed. Good research goes a long way in deciding and choosing the place to be used as a campsite. Nothing matches the beauty of a perfectly chosen wild landscape. A comfortable stay adds to the memories; just make sure to stay careful all the while. Happy camping!
