Warning: Grizzly Bears Shit Bells In The Woods
DID you know there are grizzly bears in the woods? Do you know what they do in the woods?
Says the sign at British Columbia at Fort Steele Campground:
For the hard of reading:
Due to the frequency of human-bear encounters, the B C Fish and
Wildlife Branch is advising hikers, hunters, fishermen, and any persons
that use the out of doors in a recreational or work related function to
take extra precautions while in the field.
We advise the outdoorsman to wear little noisy bells on clothing so as
to give advance warning to any bears that might be close by so you don’t
take them by surprise.
We also advise anyone using the out-of doors to carry “Pepper Spray”
with him in case of an encounter with a bear.
Outdoorsmen should also be on the watch for fresh bear activity, and
be able to tell the difference between black bear feces and grizzly bear
feces. Black bear feces is smaller and contains lots of berries and
squirel fur. Grizzly Bear shit has bells in it and smells like pepper.
