Bear paw Stay alert on the trails – chances of meeting a bear in the spring are high, since we share the same limited space in the valley bottom until the snow recedes. Make noise, watch for fresh bear sign, travel in groups, keep your dog on a leash, and if you encounter a bear – give it LOTS of space! Click Bears & People for more.

Bear paw Drive with care – if you see a bear by the road, consider not stopping – this will help keep bears wild and alive. Obey speed limits. Watch for the 70 km/h zones along Jasper National Park roads.

Bear paw Tuck these safely away – food (including pet food and bird feeders), garbage, BBQs, and recyclables can easily attract a hungry bear. Keep these and other attractants in bear-proof storage or hard-sided vehicles. Bears that get used to human food gradually lose their fear of people and may have to be relocated or destroyed.
