  • Do you carry bear spray out hiking in bear country? Our Yellowstone Forever Institute Senior Naturalist, Brad Bulin, recently talked with us about why bear spray is the most effective bear deterrent as well as when and how to use it.

    Will this work on my mother in law? She's large and hairy and tends to be aggressive towards men.

    Bear likes to eat with salt an pepper, so spray it all over your body quickly if a bear attack

    In a panic, your performance can drop by half and you may start spraying before the bear is in range. I suggest carrying multiple cans or prepare what to do after you empty the can and the bear is finally in range.

    Having tramped around Montana, I know when you hear a big bear snort at you from the bushes, you feel much better if you have a line of defense. These guys are fast, and easy to just injure and make madder if you think you are going to shoot a charging bear. But they cannot stand red pepper spray up their snouts and in their eyes. Some even slam on the brakes when they see the red can. Been sprayed before.

    people think its the mother and cubs that are the most dangerous. But thats not true, Its the young naive starving bears thats the most dangerous.

    Being able to run faster than everyone else helps

    Hello! Thanks for the great educational video! I live in Siberia, Transbaikalia, and forests are being cut down intensively here, which leads to a reduction in the habitat of bears, so cases of attacks by these animals on humans have become more and more frequent. Здоровья Вам и вашим близким, берегите себя!🤝

    we carry air horns and bear spray while bear trolling on our fat tire electric bikes, the .45 Long Colt loaded for bear is last resort. So far, no challenges. Pray I see a Sasquatch first.

    I thought they shot further than that. The bear has to be pretty close to use it.
