Pepper Spray designed to repel bears. It would take down several mean union thugs as long as they weren't upwind from you.

Guess you don't spend to much time in the deep wilderness :))

Bear repellant is just what the name says: it is a spray that can stop a bear in it's tracks at a good distance, say 20 feet. A nice thing to have along when I go backpacking in for a week or two or if a bear happens to show up around the property. It obviously works on pretty much all animals.

Think of it as mace on steroids.

Just do a search on the web. You will find all kinds.

Super powerful pepper spray discharged in massive qualtities, enough (hopefully) to stop a grizzly.

It's the bladder buster size pepper spray.

So large because bears need more persuasion than people.

It also works for rapists, armed robbers, and various other assailants.

I've told my teen-aged girls, however, that it is only a temporary solution. Once the assailant is down a very large rock or 2x4 is required. :)

""What on earth is Bear Repellant??""


Basically, it is a can of pepper spray that is supercharged for campers and hikers. They use it to spray bears and make them go away. Think of pepper spray out of a fire extinguisher..a BIG spray....
