Humor: Warning
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 suprise.
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 lookout 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 squirrel fur. Grizzly bear feces has bells in it and
smells like pepper.
Two guys were hiking in the woods when they crossed a path with a grizzly. The grizzly started making huffing noises and looked like it was about to charge. One hiker dropped his backpack and started tying his shoes. The other guy said, "Hey idiot, grizzlies can run up to 30 mph. You can't out run one of them."
The guy stands up from tying his shoes and replies. "I know I can't outrun a grizzly, I just have to outrun you."
If I come across a bear, I just club my buddy in the back of the knees wit the bear stick and run like hell.
