I did my research and the difference is one spray is more acceptable to use and possess then the other spray. The "Bear repellent" is more acceptable to have on your person in certain prohibitive states. In New York, for example, there are certain brands of bear repellent which are regarded as "Pesticides" and thus are legal to carry around on you.
The "bear repellent" is essentially the same thing as riot control or pepper spray. It comes in a larger bottle and can spray 20-30 feet just like the riot control sprays. They say there is a difference in the formulation, but I bet its the same thing. It wouldnt be cost effective for them to have different formulas. The same pepper spray that goes into the bear repellent is the same which goes into all their other bottles.
There is a thread on here about how its more acceptable to a jury to defend yourself with a Mini-14 then it is with an AR-15. I wonder if the same applies to the bear repellent. If you have a can of Guard Alaska, then it looks like you just had it to go after the four-legged creatures whereas if you have that black bottle of Fox then it looks like you were out to get the two-legged variety.
In any event, I prefer the bear repellent as it has a good reach and a larger bottle then the little can of Fox. If I was working behind the counter of a store or traveling down the interstate, I would most certainly want the 10.9 ounce bottle bear repellent compared to the 4 ounce can of Fox.
Just my personal opinion and 2 cents on this morning....food for thought...
Youtube video of Pharmacist using the "Pesticide" in New York state. Looks very effective in getting rid of pests.

My favorite is this video. The store clerk just keeps the button depressed on the Guard Alaska can until its out or about 9 seconds worth of spray. After he runs out of gas, then he continues on to give the perp a good spanking followed by some kicks from the lady. I cant imagine what it feels like to get that Guard Alaska in your face for the "full pull". It looks like the fight is out of him at the end and he can no longer stand which seems about right after standing through the "full pull".
