SISU

It is a high-quality bear spray booby trap Intended for use on problem large game predators. Its user-friendly design and multiple safeties make it the next level of home defense. The trap only sprays when activated and automatically stops spraying when the animal leaves. Multiple mounting methods allow for unlimited possibilities for setting up.

Finally there is a viable option for preventing bears from growing familiar with human habitations in the first place. The ability to produce these in batches is now possible, meaning that this product can now be available for those with bear problems all over the world!

You can't always see the problem bear. They can damage livestock and property and never be seen once. On top of this, Even if you can deter one bear, there are still plenty more that can come along at any time. Bears often come along at night or when nobody is home. This trap serves as another layer of defense against problem Bears and runs 24/7 so you can protect your home a bit more.

There are multiple ways to deal with bears. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That being said, Bears have to be Bears and Humans have to be Humans and conflicts of interest are going to happen.

If we get straight to the point, Bears are often shot, whether from government authorities or home owners. The Bear Dies. Nails are a favored tool against bears. Nails simply work pretty well, but now you have hazards everywhere and I'm sure that bears sometimes get permanent injuries and infections from nails sometimes. At least they are non-lethal.

If People are involved in scaring a bear straight, that means you have to be able to see or hear the bear. Often the bear only appears when nobody is around.

The Great Alaskan Bear Trap is non-lethal, Is active 24/7 and is very painful. It can be set up in a variety of ways. When used properly, It will for sure lessen property damage and return trips from bears. Plus, the amount of bears that will have a negative first experience around human habitations will be much higher thus, in theory, leading to a lower incidence of bear problems over the long term. On top of this, once a bear has been sprayed, it will remember the smell meaning the bear may be hesitant to enter areas that smell of bear spray in the future, much like humans stay away from skunks. The traps build up a slight spicy residue over time meaning the smell alone could deter a bear that has experience true pain before.

There are several issues I'd like to talk about. I will outline simple but logical solutions to the problems in the next section.

First of all, What will actually happen when a bear is randomly sprayed by my Trap? Will it run in fear? Will it run without control? Will it attack anything nearby? What happens if it can't see?

There are many questions so I will list out my thought process and experiences which are simply my current opinions on things and only that. Bear spray is already used on angry bears. It already has a reputation for taming hundreds of pounds of rage. But... When a bear is sprayed in self defense, it is aware of the person and the person in relation to itself. Thats a bit different than being hit randomly. Its like a sneak attack.

I have personally been sprayed with it while developing the product. When i got small amounts on my body it did burn but i could still function. I think in that scenario, a bear would probably run away. If the bear is sprayed with a large amount up close i don't know what would happen. I've personally been sprayed directly in the eyeballs from 12 inches away. I was tinkering with the design of the master safety and was not wearing safety glasses. The trap went off. I will describe what happened in detail to give the Biologists and Carnivore Specialist some insight to the possible thoughts of the animals hit directly in the eyes from close range.

One second, I was drilling into wood, the next my world was black. I didn't know what happened. All I knew was that everything was black and I was thrown (uncontrollably stumbled) backwards across the porch about 5 ft. I didn't know what happened but I knew something was wrong. I grabbed my face instinctively and my hands felt wetness. It was then that the pain hit me like a truck. I would describe the pain like a phosphorus grenade burning in side of my eye socket. I let out a long scream as I realized what I was about to endure, extreme pain with no known end time and possible blindness.

Luckily, I had trained my mother what to do beforehand. She got the baby off the floor and turned on the shower.

I on the other hand couldn't see and was in extreme pain. Walking from the porch to the shower entailed running into walls, and furniture. I gave up on walking and resorted to crawling. I crawled to the shower and let the water hit my face. The spray then ran out of my eyes and into my mouth. I started coughing. Unable to undress myself i got in the shower partially clothed, suspenders and all. I rinsed off for 20 minutes and still was in extreme pain. I got out of the shower and eventually got some eyedrops which helped a great deal.

It was 90 minutes before I could function again. During that 90 minutes I was really pissed off, in loads pain, and could not hardly see anything. For all intensive purposes I was crippled. It was 2 days before I was worth a shit.

The other problems I could foresee is that of criminals using this on people and law enforcement or negligent behavior. This trap is not intended for people but that being said, criminals do not care about the law. There will probably be some crack head somewhere that will use this on law enforcement or "Trespassers."

The last 2 issues I foresee are these, "What if a non-target species gets in the trap?"

& "What if someone gets sprayed with the trap?"

As far as non-target species entering the traps, this is what I think. These traps are intended for areas of human habitation. Moose, Wolves and Wolverines can all pose a threat to humans and their property and livestock. I've even heard of moose getting into food storage areas meant for animals. Wolves and Wolverines can do a number on livestock as can a lynx. Really, any large to medium game animal can cause serious trouble. This trap is made for around the house, to protect the house. In the end, any animal that goes through the pain of my trap will inherently be weary of human habitations especially if it was their first time entering a human habitation. Point blank, a yard without large animals in it is much safer than a yard with large animals in it.

As far as protecting humans from being sprayed, i have a few ideas. For one, the trap is red. This makes it very visible to humans. It does not blend in with the environment. Secondly, according to my research, bears can't see red very well. Then stamping the wood with warnings would inform any uninformed person to stay away from the product. Furthermore, making the trip wire highly visible to humans with marking tape and such would lead to less accidents when dealing with tripwires.

Another simple measure is having a serial # on each trap that is tied to the purchaser. This would deter people from setting the traps in poor locations or neglecting them for long periods of time. It would also deter people from stealing this trap from someone else as the trap can be sourced back to a particular persons yard.

To add to these measures, Informing all governmental agencies about the product would take very little effort. A simple E-mail with a video and slide-show would inform thousands of police, game wardens, first responders and military officials of what the product is and how to handle one if encountered in on the job. The fact is, this product will be encountered by many govenment officials and one email could train everyone. Then, they will be handle the situation when needed.

As far as individuals defacing the product causing it to blend in with an environment and removing the serial # and warning labels. Well, that's a sure sign of someone up to no good. It should be easy enough to slap the person with a charge of some kind and confiscate the device.

At the end of the day, this device is much safer than a firearm and has the potential to prevent property damage and save the lives of many bears and livestock.

Perhaps my biggest concern is that of a bear that has been sprayed directly in the eyes and can not see AND becomes aggressive. I think preventing this products use in highly populated areas like Anchorage would mitigate this problem by 90%. the other 9.99% would be mitigated by individual cities putting regulations on when and where this product can be used. Each city has its own bear problems and each city can have a meeting on how to use this device.

The overwhelming king of this discussion is that of personal responsibility. Every owner of this trap should consider how to best use this product for the safety of himself, the animals and anyone in the surrounding area.

So, people, I have created a machine of pain that will solve a problem without bloodshed. A good instruction manual, an E-mail based training video, A serial # and general common sense by the user will prevent nearly all problems in my opinion. Bears and people will be in a better situation in the end. Plus, we can sell more bear tags making the DNR more money in the end and giving bears a chance to fully mature before harvest.
