A study has found that drones are better than dogs at keeping dangerous bears away from people.
Experimental research by Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks (Montana FWP) highlighted the erratic nature of dogs in shifting grizzly bears away from human habitats.
Wesley M Sarmento, bear manager for Montana FWP, was tasked with investigating methods for so-called hazing of bears from unwanted areas.
His research experimented with Airedale terriers, but he would find they wouldn't just chase bears - resulting in prickly experiences with critters such as porcupines.
