It would work well as a bear bag for a few reasons. For one, it is relatively tough. A motivated bear would probably have no problem ripping it open, but part of hanging food in a tree is the abuse it goes through as it travels to its final resting point. This bag is durable enough to withstand any bashing on it's journey. The other good thing is that it's waterproof which means it holds in smells much better than a traditional bag. Due to its roll-top closure, bears and other animals who have a high degree of olfactory senses (ie. they can smell really well), will have a harder time detecting food in this bag. The roll-top closure also gives it a great spot for tying the rope to hang it. I personally think this is a great food bag to keep your valuable food from bears or any other starving wildlife.
