Staying safe

Part of recreating in regions with wildlife means being prepared. It’s important for all of us to know how to not only protect ourselves from a negative encounter with wildlife, but to protect animals from having to be moved or killed.

Here are some helpful hints to safely recreate in wild country:

Inquire about recent bear or wildlife activity in the area
Carry bear spray and know how to use it properly
Recreate with others
Always let someone know where you are going and when you’ll be back
Make your presence known by talking, singing or making loud noises. Animals, particularly bears, are more likely to avoid people when their presence is known
Keep children close and dogs on leash
Observe and photograph animals from the safety of your car
Don’t approach or feed wildlife; respect their space and move away
