World Money Box Museum saw its most striking recent encounter on April 19, 2026, in Minoh Gein 3 chome, where 1 black bear gave a low growl and watched from halfway up a slope while water ran on one side of the path and a slope rose on the other. That kind of close, tense meeting is the clearest sign that bears are still moving through the wooded edges around the museum area.
