6日早朝、渡良瀬遊水地の新赤麻橋付近の土手にクマらしき動物が……
前傾姿勢だから間違いないですよ〜
国道294号近くの栃木・茨城県境にポイントがあって、こんな山もない所に？と思ってタップしたら、栃木・群馬県境の河川敷でクマ２頭の目撃情報とありました。栃木県真岡市とも書いてあるので正しい位置なのかもしれませんが、栃木・群馬県境と栃木・茨城県境では全然違うので、情報の入力は正しく行って頂きたいです。
ニュースと連動して、出没情報わかるのはありがたいです。ただ、地図で詳細をみようとしても指で拡大で操作がしづらいのと、地理的に詳しくないエリアは場所が把握しずらいです。例えばGoogleマップにリンクで、地図と連動されるとより使いやすくわかりやすいとおもいます。改善点意見としてお伝えしたいとおもい、コメントしました。宜しくお願いします。
出没情報だけでも参考になり有難いが ある程度の危険度も分かる情報分類が出来ないでしょうか？
3月だけで7件も報告されてるのに、年間900件超えってことは毎月こんなペースなのか。
