Department of the Environment is advising hikers, hunters, fishermen and golfers to take extra precautions and keep alert for bears while in the area. People are advised to wear noise-producing devices such as little bells on their clothing to alert but not startle a bear unexpectedly. They also recommend carrying pepper spray in case of an encounter with a bear. It is also a good idea to watch for fresh signs of bear activity, and to know the difference between black bear and grizzly bear droppings. Black bear droppings are smaller and contain berries and possibly squirrel fur. Grizzly bear droppings have little bells in them and smell like pepper spray.

i read this on a site i frequent on the internet (only in part to protect the guilty)

Grizzlies in jersey, eh?

Must be enough woods-wise folks are being sufficiently noisy and wearing "bear bells" during their traipses in the pines to keep them pesky grizzlies at a safe distance - like ... Wyoming?
