[at-l] Fwd: FW: Camping Alert

[Clines <clines@cfw.com>]

A friend of mine just emailed this to me. I thought it was pretty good.


>> Camping Alert
>>     
>> In case anyone is considering doing some camping this summer, please 
>> note the following public service announcement:
>>     
>> In Alaska, tourists are warned to wear tiny bells on their clothing 
>> when hiking in bear country.  The bells warn away MOST bears. 
>> Tourists are also cautioned to watch the ground on the trail, paying 
>> particular attention to bear droppings to be alert for the presence 
>> of Grizzly Bears.
>>     
>> One can tell a Grizzly dropping because it has tiny bells in it.
