******** State Of Montana Grizzly Bear Notice ********
January 27, 1999
In light of the rising frequency of recent human/grizzly bear
conflicts, the Montana Department of Fish and Game is today
advising hikers, hunters, and fisherman to take extra precautions
and keep alert for bears while in the field. We advise that
outdoorsmen wear noisy little bells on their clothing so as not
to startle bears that aren't expecting them. We also advise the
outdoorsmen to carry pepper spray with them in case of an
encounter with a bear. It is also a good idea to watch out for
fresh signs of bear activity. Outdoorsmen should also recognize
the difference between black bear and grizzly bear droppings. Black
bear droppings are smaller and contain lots of berries and squirrel
fur. Grizzly bear droppings, however, are much larger, contain
little bells, and smell like pepper.
Scatologicaly yours,
John C. Teskey
