Black Bears In Maine

Many forests in Maine are home to moose and black bear. When camping, it is important that tourists realize bears are in the area. Black bears are generally shy and avoid contact with humans, but they are not above temptation. Leaving garbage scattered around is certain to draw in bears. Food should be tucked away in air tight containers, garbage should be placed in park trash bins before going to bed, and campfires used for cooking should be extinguished so that residual food odors are eliminated. On the rare chance that a tourist encounters a bear, they should slowly back away, never run! A black bear will charge once to assert domination, but generally this charge does not lead to an attack. In the rare event that a bear does attack, keep your head covered as much as possible, and fight back. Playing dead does not work, black bears will drag its prey to cover. When fighting back, aim for the nose and eyes. « masquer

Tourists can reduce stress by planning ahead. Many restaurants urge diners to make reservations to ensure a seat in the dining rooms. Tourists should make hotel/B&B reservations at least three weeks in advance to ensure there is room available.
