This came to me this morning and I thought I should do my civic duty and pass
it on. In case anyone is considering doing some camping this summer, please
note the following public service announcement. :-))

CAMPING ALERT

In Alaska, tourists are warned to wear tiny bells on their clothing when
hiking in bear country. The bells warn MOST bears. Tourists are also advised
to watch the ground on the trail, paying particular attention to bear
droppings and cautioned to be alert for the presence of Grizzly Bears. One
can identify Grizzly droppings because it has tiny bells in it. :-))
