Bear Safety Tips: BE BEARWISE ON VACATION

* Enjoy bears from a distance and never approach them.
* Feeding bears (intentionally or unintentionally) trains them to approach homes and people for more food; you may be ticketed and fined.
* Bears may be defensive when people get too close.
* Secure your food, garbage, recyclables, coolers
* Clean and store your BBQ grill.
* Keep doors and windows closed.

If staying at a vacation rental, ask if they have bear-resistant trash containers. A bear-resistant rental will help prevent conflicts with bears while ensuring your family’s safety while on vacation.
