At around 16:45 on November 25, 2025, a bear about 1 meter long was seen eating persimmons in a persimmon tree on a residential property in Kinosube, Hakusan City, and fed for about an hour before climbing down and moving away. The city considered responses including using a dart gun but the bear moved before preparations were complete; the city and Hakusan police patrolled but could not find it and urged residents to avoid unnecessary outings. A bear was also spotted climbing a tree about 200 meters away at around 12:35 the same day, but it is unknown if it was the same individual.
