<I actually like this one!>
The Wildlife Federation is now advising hikers, hunters, fishermen, rescue dog handlers and others who venture into the woods this year to take extra precautions and to be on the alert for bears. They advise people to wear noise-producing devices such as little bells on their clothing to alert, but not startle the bears. They also advise people 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 nuts. Grizzly bear droppings have usually contain small bells and smell like pepper spray!
