Keep Safe in Bear Country with Bear Mace
When you are out in the woods you don't usually have to worry all
that much about being attacked by other people. However, you could
have problems with animals, including bears. If you are going
camping or hiking in the woods, you want to be prepared to deal with
this danger. One of the best ways to deal with this is by carrying a
canister of bear mace and knowing how to use it.
Bear mace works just like the mace or pepper spray you might carry
to spray at a human attacker. However, it is very strong, and sense
bears are even more sensitive to it than humans it is also very
effective. You simply spray it in front of you if a bear is coming
at you and once it hits the mist it will almost always turn away.
One of the reasons bear mace is so handy is the fact that it can be
used even in many areas where you are not allowed to shoot bears. It
also works if you don't have a gun or are not a great shot. Bears
that are shot might just get angry and be even more intent on
reaching you and harming you, while bears that are sprayed with mace
are likely to turn around and run the other way.
Considering the fact that bear mace is only about $40 for a nine
ounce canister that you can spray from up to thirty feet away, it is
a pretty good investment, especially for those who are often in bear
country. You don't want to be faced with a grizzly bear and not have
any way to protect yourself. This spray is not lethal, so you won't
be permanently hurting the bear. Also, although it wouldn't be
pleasant, you wouldn't have any permanent harm should you
accidentally get some of the spray in your face (though you want to
try to avoid this as much as possible).
Of course the best defense is to stay away from bears in the first
place, but that isn't always possible since you might come upon them
unexpectedly. However, do your best to be respectful and keep your
distance should you have that option. |
