Human urine as an animal deterrent? Another fallacy!

My friend has made the dubious claim that human urine can be (um) released
around camp strategically to ward off bears. I am skeptical, but we each
said we would ask someone who knows. I come to you, pct-l. Is there any
validity to this whatsoever?

Sincerely,
Anne
