In light of the rising frequency of human/grizzly bear conflicts, the
Montana Department of Fish and Game is advising hikers, hunters, and
fishermen to take extra precautions and keep alert for bears while in the
field.
We advise that outdoors men wear noisy little bells on their
clothing so as not to startle bears that aren't expecting them. We also
advise outdoors men to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter
with a bear.
It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of
bear activity.
Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between
black bear and grizzly bear poop. Black bear poop is smaller and contains
lots of berries and squirrel fur. Grizzly bear poop has little bells in it
and smells like pepper.
