Another PSA for our colleagues and their friends and families. When outdoors in wooded areas inhabited by bears, it pays to be prepared. This is true whether just having some recreation, involved in SAR activities, and especially playing or working with our canines. What follows is a link to an article describing a grizzly attack in Grand Tetons National Park. In this article is a link to additional (important) information on preparation to spend time in bear country. It also describes the different strategies depending on Grizzly vs Black Bear encounters. Keep in mind, it doesn’t matter if there’s grizzlies, brown or black bear. We are no longer at the top of the food chain! Be careful out there!
