Very few of us will ever understand the sheer terror of a bear attack and the pain involved with surviving one. We can however greatly increase our chances of surviving such an attack by simply equipping ourselves with an extremely affordable (although what price do you put on your personal safety) canister of Guard Alaska bear spray.

The following are some helpful tips on how to survive a bear attack and using Guard Alaska bear spray in general…

Tip #1 – Buy the bear spray online or at a sporting goods store that carries Guard Alaska. You can't use bear spray if you don't have bear spray so take the first step and get some either online or at a store that carries it.

Tip #2 – Do not accept cheap imitations or bargain basement bear spray. There are a few things you can buy generic in the name of saving a few bucks. Paper towels? sure. Breakfast cereal? Why not. Distilled water? Absolutely. These are products that won't be as quality as their name brand counterparts but who cares? When talking about a product that is designed to save your life, or at the very least keep you from being violently, permanently, mentally and physically scarred I say don't skimp. Buy the real deal and have the satisfaction and confidence that you have the very best protection against bear attack that is available today.

Tip #3 – Carry the bear spray with you at ALL times. This should be a no-brainer but I was recently camping with some friends up in Northern Wisconsin and when I asked one of these friends where the bear spray that I bought her was she replied "in my backpack, I think". That's great, that should help immensely when standing face to face with a 400 pound Black Bear. Just tell the bear that you misplaced the bear spray and it would be greatly appreciated if it could sit still and postpone ripping your throat out while you locate the spray. A better idea would be to just carry the spray with you at all times, don't you think?

Tip #4 – Keep your campsite clean. Store food in your vehicle or hung up in a tree at least 10 feet of of the ground. Certainly do not leave food in the tent with you as the smell of food could attract a bear. Waking up next to a hungry wild bear is a bad thing.

So please keep these tips in mind when venturing off into bear populated wilderness areas.

Stay Safe,
