<p style="text-align: justify;">Sit quietly for a while and gather your thoughts. Then look into your supplies. If you have survived an accident like plane crash, then look out for food, potable water, waterproof materials, blankets, etc from the wreckage in order to survive.</p>
<h4><strong>Taking Care of Clothing</strong></h4>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After you have collected survival gears, you have to lay focus on clothing. Ensure that your skin is covered. Cover your face as much as possible and roll down your sleeves for avoiding scratches as well as insect bites. Avoid shorts and put on pants. If you have received wounds, treat them properly with first aid kit for preventing spread of infection.</p>
<h4><strong>Have Lot of Water</strong></h4>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Having lot of water will help you to overcome dehydration. If you see that a site is populated with bees, flies and insects, it indicates that a water body is nearby. If possible, boil water, filter it and add purification tablets for maintaining hygiene.</p>
<h4><strong>Do Not Walk in Jungle with Bare Feet</strong></h4>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Always wear rubber jungle boots or waterproof shoes while walking in jungle to avoid insect bites. If you do not have jungle boots, you can cover your feet with plastic bags and then put on your shoes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ensure that your socks are dry. Wearing wet socks will lead to fungal infection. Before putting on socks, apply powder or foot cream to prevent surfacing of moisture that can become breeding ground for bacteria or fungus. If there is blister development, remove them with sterilized needle for feeling comfortable.</p>
<h4><strong>Mark Your Route</strong></h4>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You should leave a trail for easy reference. As you proceed, mark the vital points with markers made of brightly colored, reflective objects or torn clothes, so that you can come back to previous positions easily.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Never make a trail with edible items because animals will consume them. Do not move in straight path. Walk slowly in order to conserve your energy. Avoid paths comprising of grabbing vines while you are moving up the slope. You may receive injuries from thorns present in them andsome species may emit irritants. While walking, take a long branch and use it walking stick for clearing foliage from the path.</p>
