For 6 weeks every year, the warehouse where I work closes for spring cleaning and we are free to go off on paid leave. I take this time to drive out of Nashville and imbibe the untamed beauty of Tennessee.
There tends to be a significant bear presence in the forests out here, sometimes spilling into the surrounding urban areas. I rely on the strong bear spray pepper formulation of the Mace Bear Repellent Spray for protection.
Pepper sprays inflame the mucous membranes, resulting in the involuntary shutting and of the eyes and profuse tearing as well as shortness of breath. They also leave an intense burning sensation on skin.
Pepper sprays made to protect against human assaulters, it must be said, should not be used. An FDA endorsed bear spray pepper substance is recommended, like what the Mace Bear Repellent Spray contains.
I was on my own on campground when I stumbled into a brown bear one day. The other campers were away to get breakfast and water for bathing. Guarding our site had been my assignment.
Bears naturally shy away from humans and the most likely reasons this one walked into our site would have been that it was famished or had cubs to feed. If it were so, this bear was a real threat that the Mace bear spray pepper substance could thwart.
I am opposed to killing bears for self defense. The Mace Bear Repellent Spray provides a humane means of security against ursine dangers. By incapacitating the bear briefly, I had the opportunity to escape without causing it life-long damage.
I made use of the 260 gram Mace Magnum Fogger model that sprays as far as 30 feet and can be emptied onto the target in about 5.4 seconds. Growling from its strong bear spray pepper effects, the brown bear never came close to mauling me fatally.
