LONG BEACH UNIT
WHY: To reduce the probability of negative human-wolf encounters.

VISITOR ADVICE:

Stay safe and avoid a wolf encounter by:

• Hiking in a group, and making noise. 

• Do not leave food or garbage unattended.

• Staying alert and watching for signs such as tracks and droppings.

Keep children close and dogs on leash at all times     

If you see a wolf:

• DO NOT RUN, do not crouch down.

• Pick up small children, and keep the group together.

• Back away slowly, maintaining eye contact with the animal as you leave.

• Yell, wave your arms, look large; and if you have one, use an air horn.

If a wolf approaches you:

• Throw sticks and stones etc.

• If the aggression escalates, use your bear spray and fight back.
