Do’s and Dont’s when hunting Black Bears
Some adults also love bears but not in the way that kids do. Black bear hunting is rampant and legal in some areas although these cuddly creatures are considered extinct by animal lovers. If you are living in a region where it is legal to hunt for black bears, here are some tips before you start shooting.
- Make sure that you wash your clothes with unscented detergent and avoid perfumed soaps before hunting. Shampoos, soaps, and the deodorant that you will use prior to hunting must also be unscented as well.
- If you are a smoker, use nicotine patches instead when hunting. This is to avoid the bear from smelling tobacco (they actually know that it came from humans). Bears also have a keen sense of smell when it comes to fire and smoke.
- Always keep quiet and keep still.
- After eating and before heading to the black bear hunting site, use mint toothpaste to brush your teeth. Black bears are attracted to that scent.
