Put BearWise to Work For You
We ask everyone who downloads or orders BearWise materials what they plan to do with them. Responses range from post in our rental cabin, educate my grandchildren and share with my neighbors to hand out in campgrounds and keep our employees in bear country safe.
We also hear from businesses, homeowners associations, parks and forests, educators and librarians, realtors, law enforcement, members of the media and many more.

- I will tape it on my front door to remind me how lucky me and my two dogs were when we were charged by a single male earlier this summer right in front of my house. My blood curdling scream stopped it in its tracks about ten feet away. My blood curdling scream also prompted a neighbor to call the cops cause they thought someone was being murdered. I carry a whistle now.
