I enjoy spending some time in the outdoors. I consider it my special escape from tension at work. From the time our little girl turned 12, my husband and I have been making it a point for our whole family to have a chance to go camping at least three times every year during summer.
Because spending some time out in the woods is not without any safety concerns, my other half and I never let our kid wander off by herself. Aside from this safety precaution, we always keep our bear repellant spray readily available.
Bear spray is a known effective means of self-defense versus bears. It works by releasing a sort of fog in the air that causes discomfort in the mouth, throat, eyes, nose as well as lungs of a bear after contact.
In the same way that defense sprays formulated for use on humans aren't advisable against bears, bear pepper spray shouldn't be used against humans. The latter is formulated to ward off a bear, providing the user enough time to escape before the bear eventually recovers from the non-lethal effects of the spray and rejoins its population.
My hubby's choice of bear repellent is the Guard Alaska Ultra Hot bear pepper spray. He bought one on the web since it is the sole bear repellent spray registered with the EPA, where it is described to work on all bear species.
My personal choose of bear spray is the 260-gram Bear Pepper Mace. I regard it to be most suited for me because its long range, which reaches approximately 30 feet, can give me enough protection at a safe range.
I have never met an aggressive bear and I hope it stays that way for my family members and myself.
In case this kind of emergency does take place and we come face to face with a hostile bear, I feel certain that we shall be alert and ready enough to put our bear repellant spray to use and prevent any severe injury.
