Ha!

 


 
  


The Colorado State Department of Fish and Wildlife is
advising hikers, hunters, fishermen, and golfers to take
extra precautions and be on the alert for bears while in the
Dillon, Breckenridge, and Keystone area. They advise people
to wear noise-producing devices such as little bells on
their clothing to alert but not startle the bears
unexpectedly. They also advise you to carry pepper spray in
case of an encounter with a bear.  It is also a good idea to
watch for signs of bear activity.

People should be able to recognize 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 bells in them and smell like
pepper spray
