Camping Safety
Tips:
Bear Fences
Provide Outdoor Protection and Safety While Camping
There are many places where people
live that they may encounter a bear. Most people never expect to see
a bear while hiking or camping but the lure of food and the excitement
of a meal will draw them near. Why let that encounter take you by surprise
and not be prepared? A
bear at your campsite can cost you plenty of pain, money and lost time,
not to mention your life.
An electric bear fence around
your camp site would put you in a position of protection, safety and
confidence. About 1 in 10 people encounter bear sightings while on
camping trips in areas where bears are known to reside. Some are brief
sighting of a bear close to camp and for the rest of the night you
are continuously awakened by what you thought was a bear only never
to truly understand if a bear was at your camp site making that good
night sleep not so good. Or maybe you came back to your camp site and
found all your property destroyed because a bear was looking for food
or something very simple in nature. Stories like those mentioned above
happen all the time. Why not control the next encounter with a bear
with an electric bear fence?
I have never met a person that did not have some kind of concern while
being outdoors on a long camping or hiking trip. Bears exist in
many areas of the country, from the west coast to the east coast. But
bears should prevent no one from being out in the wilderness. What
concerns some most, however, is camping. No one wants to be sound asleep
in a tent when a curious bear pokes around camp. Nor is there any
reason for bears to be able to approach your camp at night. Bear
electric fencing, now lighter and more economical than ever, can dissuade
curious bears from approaching your camp, thus allowing you to sleep safely
and soundly.
If more bear fences are used, over time this will teach bears to avoid
camps and equipment all together. Bear trainers say that you don?t
have to teach bears twice. This is a pro-active stance in preventing camps
and equipment destruction by training bears to avoid them. A portable electric
bear fence system (bear fence) can protect more than just your camp.
