6月5日も、また半原地区の馬渡坂で地元中学生が熊を見たそうです。
愛川町半原に集中してるのはなぜなんだろう。11月だけで3件、8月も複数件出てるけど、この場所に何かあるのか。
愛川ヘの学修旅行は、すべきだと思いますか？止めるべきだと思いますか？
例えば熊の目撃情報が出てる6/9時点で宇都宮市内に遠足行かせる校長は全国どこみても居ないだろう。そんな中、熊の目撃情報が出ている地点よりさらに山に近いふれあいの村で、子供達が豚肉の香り漂う豚汁作り。無事を祈るばかり。
去年親戚の子供が、ふれあいの村に行き
オリエンテーションで半原の町探索しました。近くに住んでるので、見に行ってきましたが、熊鈴つけていても、きけんそうでした
