Maybe you've all seen this before, but it's one of my favorite bear-spray stories
Quote: | I worked at REI a few years back (large outdoor sporting goods co-op, just in case you haven't heard of it), and we sold bear spray (pepper spray for bears). A woman came in with her two kids one day and bought a canister because they were going camping. She gets to the front door, then comes back to the register as an afterthought, and asks if she's supposed to just spray her kids from head to toe with it. |

Best thread in a long time!

Agreed. I often wonder what must be going through the heads of certain members when they decide to post such things.

My bear spray looks nothing like pepper spray it looks more like 🔫.
I may not be the smartest, I may not be the strongest, but I don't want to be. I only want to be the best I can be.

Maybe bear spray would work on aggressive mountain beavers.

It should work on anything that breathes and has mucus membranes

Bear Spray , it's not just for bear, but also somewhat useful against the North American Whacko. But pepper spray for self-defense against the North American whacko is much more concentrated that bear spray and can only be used at very close range -- bear spray is more intented to create a peppery fog that the bear is reluctant go through -- but it doesn't actually incapacitate the bear or a North Amercan Whacko.

Thank you for resurrecting this thread from the sands of history! Great Friday am coffee read.
Bhair spray? Bearanoia?!? I have been wandering the woods without these crucial terms for far too long...

Is this really accurate? If so, that would mean I'd have to carry two different products.
