What should you do before approaching an animal that appears to be dead?

Wait a short distance away and watch for any rise and fall of the animal's chest
Immediately approach to check its pulse
Leave it alone and walk away
Yell to scare any other nearby animals

The correct answer is: Wait a short distance away and watch for any rise and fall of the animal's chest

Before approaching an animal that appears to be dead, it is important to take caution as the animal may still be alive and may become defensive if you approach it too quickly. Waiting a short distance away and watching for any rise and fall of the animal's chest is recommended, as it can indicate that the animal is actually still alive. Approaching immediately to check its pulse (B), leaving it alone and walking away (C), or yelling to scare any other nearby animals (D) are all incorrect options and can potentially be dangerous for both you and the animal. Checking for chest movements is a safer approach before attempting to touch the animal or determining next steps.
