Use bear spray correctly
Expert research in Alaska finds that a few ounces of pepper spray are just as effective as a gun in an aggressive encounter. Bear spray - also called red pepper spray, bear pepper spray and bear mace - is about the only choice that is legal in national parks, and it is a good choice.
- It’s best to have more than one can of bear spray. Carry a back-up can if you are embarking on an extended camping trip or hike, and if you are in a group, be sure everyone has a can.
In a number of attacks, people successfully defended themselves from an aggressive bear but expended all of their spray in the process. Those people were then left in the middle of the wilderness, facing a long walk out with no bear spray and knowing that there is at least one ticked-off bear in the area.
- Keep it accessible. In many attacks, people have had only a split second to respond to an angry bear. This leaves no time for digging through a pack to find the spray or for removing the plastic wrapper or bag in which it has been sealed. When approaching an area where there is a high likelihood of encountering a bear, have the spray can out of the holster and in your hand, ready to use.
- Carry only full cans. people usually need to spray bears multiple times in order to drive them off. Conserving bear spray and paying attention to the total volume in the can should be concerns.
Manufacturers recommend you test-spray a can to ensure it is pressurized and will work when needed. Do this in a well-ventilated area far from people and test it for only a very short burst. Beyond that initial test, don’t spray it again.
