Camp safety tips

Hiking and biking safety tips

Activities such as hiking, biking and camping offer just a few ways to enjoy the outdoors. However, we must remember that the same areas that provide amazing outdoor adventures are also home to bears, wolves and other large carnivores. To avoid confrontations with wildlife, it is important to learn more about their behavior and responsible ways to avoid interactions with wildlife.

The Living with Wildlife Foundation offers comprehensive information about avoiding conflicts with carnivores while enjoying the outdoors. Download the latest version of Living with Predators Resource Guide: Recreating in Bear, Wolf and Mountain Lion Country from their website.
