Man! I had 2 crazy pit bulls charge me when I was enjoying a nice bike ride last summer. What is it with dogs? Why the #$%^ do they have to chase bike riders? Anyway they charged and bracketed me between them like I was some kind of prey animal and then the more aggressive one (the one that was about 12 inches away from my leg) seemed to change. It's body language gave me the impression that he changed from threat to bite. At that moment I let him have it with the bear spray. The results were instant and everything I hoped for. You could practically hear his paws skidding on the concrete as he came to a halt. His head dropped low and he did nothing but gag, cough and wheeze and then he staggered and stumbled toward his home. The other less aggressive one was about 5 feet away and I think it would have only bit it the other one was biting. I only gave that one a quick shot, less than a second, and he instantly and totally lost all interest in me. It wasn't debilitated like the other one though and just sneezed a bit as it retreated. I'm a bike commuter during the summer and I never ride without my bear spray. I made a nice holster for it just in front of my seat. I don't know what it will do against a bear but it sure as #^$% works against enrage and charging pit bulls.

Other reviewers might joke about use on bears, but let's face it - must purchases of the jumbo size bear mace is for protection from members of our own species. And if that is your goal, this is what you want. Don't mess with those little purse-size binaca spray bottles, bear mace is what you need to keep in your car or home. Buy two cans, one for practice and one to keep. It can be a little tricky to see how the safety comes off, and how the trigger works.

I had the chance to use this Bear Defense Spray on two occasions, one was during a promotional radio comedy show. The Bear was tame and I got $50 for Spraying it on a Bear. Didn't seem to work at all, it sneezed a few times but it didn't do a thing. If it hadn't been tame (w/ a trainer), I would have been torn to pieces.
Occasion two was when I went hiking in the mountains. I came across a brown bear near a small creek and he came at me. I froze, reacted calmly, took the Bear Defense Spray and used it. The only thing it did was startle the Bear, it retreated but eventually came at me again, but I had time enough to run back to my truck where I hid for safety.
Bear adrenaline, either from male 'heat' or anger, is enough to override the effects of a little pepper spray burst, just like a man on drugs or alcohol can still attack if hit with pepper spray.
In all, I wouldn't recommend these Bear Defense Sprays at all unless you are dealing with a Bear cub.

AVOID Stephen Graham's fake review, he's a spokesperson for the Guard Alaska Bear Defense Spray.
