The study confirms that wind and cold limit the range of bear spray significantly. Perhaps someone will market a heated bear spray holster.

This is old but I still like it.

Montana Grizzly Bear Notice:

In light of the rising frequency of human/grizzly bear
conflicts, the Montana Department of Fish and Game
is advising hikers, hunters, and fishermen to take extra
precautions and keep alert for bears while in the field.
We advise that outdoorsmen wear noisy little bells on
their clothing so as not to startle the bears that aren’t
expecting them. We also advise outdoorsmen to carry
pepper spray with them in case of an encounter with a
bear.

It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of bear
activity. Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference
between black bear and grizzly bear poop. Black bear poop
is smaller and contains a lot of berry seeds and squirrel fur.
Grizzly bear poop has little bells in it and smells like pepper
spray.

un noted was the number of bears actually killedin conflicts with humans who required defensive measures

More people are likely killed in Chicago in one month by each other than bears are killed in defense by humans in one whole year

If the Lewis and Clark expedition had been restricted bear spray, they would have never been heard from again.
