Loading ...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 while in the field.
They have advised that outdoorsmen wear noisy little bells on their clothing so as not to startle the bears. They further advise outdoorsmen to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter with a bear.
It is also a good idea to watch for fresh signs of bear activity. Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between black bear droppings, and grizzly bear droppings.
Black bear droppings are smaller and will contain lots of berries, and squirrel fur.
On the other hand, grizzly bear droppings has little bells in it, and smells like pepper.
