    I’m from a country with lots of bears, the mountain rescue authority here encourages having speakers with music playing. Bear bells are pretty much useless, but wildlife is pretty good at picking up human voices. If I’m going hiking alone I periodically yell out random words.

      That reminds me of how I was taught to determine which bears are local, by examinimg bear droppings:

      • Black Bear: berries and nuts
      • Polar bear: fish, seal, rabbit meat
      • Grizzly bear: bear bells, bits of Bluetooth speaker, RIA merchandise fabric, bike pedals
