I suggest anyone coming up that plans to simply go fishing leave their
guns at home... It's illegal to shoot an animal for taking food from
you, if it wants your fish, then let it have it.

The best defense against bears is noise and a clean camp, if you make
sure that you make enough noise for bears to know that you're there, you
will most likely not see one, many people have bells attached to their
backpacks for this purpose.  If you plan to camp out somewhere, keep
food items (as well as toothpaste) well out of camp, best to put it in a
tree somewhere, then bears will have no reason to come into your camp.

Leave all babies that you encounter strictly alone, and if you do
encounter animals, give ground.

If you simply must bring a firearm, the most effective one against bear
attacks is a shotgun, few people shoot well with handguns when stressed.
With a little common sense, any trip to the wilds of Alaska will be
thoroughly enjoyable and nobody (Human or Animal) need get hurt.
