Seems to be an all round rubric partially political (more than a little based in Eurocentric standard) partially wilderness in which case Australia does kind of have BC beat. Like yes… We have moose grizzlies and wolverine but those are a pretty rare eldrich horror to stumble across. We don’t really have mouse-pocolypses, or dinnerplate sized crawlies that randomly just show up in our houses… And our critters are all round less venomous.
Like I grew up in a forestry household. Off trail can get spooky as fuck. But for a lot of the main points like exposure and microbial issues which is pretty much a problem everywhere we rank fairly tame. Most of our snakes and bugs are chill with highly survivable bites, our deserts are pretty temperate but in most of the heavily forested areas there’s a lot of foragables if you know what to look for and most of our big predators are easily scared off.
You say that, and yes, if you know what you’re doing its fine. Same applies to Australia.
We have thick rainforest vegitation so dense you can walk off a cliff and not realize it until you fall through.
