Protect Yourself Humanely with Bear Mace
There is nothing more terrifying than being on the receiving end of a bear attack; bears can reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour in a matter of seconds, which very literally means that their force is going to hit you like a truck. The best way to stay safe during a bear attack varies depending on the bear's mood – either curl into a ball to remove your perceived threat, or fight back to exert dominance. One strategy that is always effective is the use of Bear Mace, which is specifically designed to stop bear attacks humanely, causing only temporary blindness and a stinging sensation. In most situations, spraying an attacking bear in the face or using a cloud of mace to stop a bear charge is enough to make the animal flee the confrontation without him – or you – getting seriously injured. Even the Sierra Club advocates the use of bear mace in self-defense situations, claiming that its use will “reduce human injuries” and “help promote the recovery and survival” of the bear.
Most types of bear repellent use ultra-hot peppers like Cayenne (100,000+ Scovilles of heat) to irritate and drive off bears, and are much more powerful than maces and pepper sprays approved only for use on humans. Because bears can cover short distances quickly, look for a bear mace that has a range of 35 feet or more. DefendWell.com knows that animal attacks are serious business – that's why we carry several effective and Humane Animal Repellants, including bear mace.
Of course, the wilderness isn't the only place you're likely to be attacked. Because bear mace is simply a more potent pepper spray, it can be just as effective (or more so) against a human assailant. When you're being threatened,Bear Mace is a powerful tool for ending a potentially dangerous conflict peacefully.
