How do you know when youre freezing to death and how do you keep that from happening when you dont have any clothes or equipment to keep warm?

Hypothermia is difficult to prevent in a cold environment when you have no clothes, shelter, or a heat source to keep your core temperature at an acceptable level. In severe hypothermia, a person may be unconscious without obvious signs of breathing or a pulse. ref: https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/what-is-hypothermia
