    When you are wandering through grizzly bear country, bring a firearm.

    Don't be the idiot standing in front of a charging bear with a can of mace.

    Yes I think grizzlies use it as breath freshener.

    I somehow think the authorities would frown on people carrying firearms in
    Yellowstone National Park or any other national park for that matter. Your best bet is to wear bear bells and carry a can of bear spray. :wink:

    Helpful hint: Always make sure somebody in your group is a slower runner that yourself..... :)
