Hearing a crackling/rustling sound, I looked toward the noise and saw a bear about 1–1.2 m in body length. The bear appeared twice around 10:00 and each time went back into the brush.

[Report] I found this during my commute. It is definitely animal droppings. I think it’s slightly smaller than a clenched fist. (Note from the Forestry and Agricultural Maintenance Division: The size is small for bear droppings and it looks like droppings from a small animal.)

A single bear, over 1 meter in body length, was seen climbing a tree. The bear later came down from the tree, but because there were thickets beneath the tree it walked into, its direction of departure is unknown.

[Report] While resting in the car, I spotted a bear heading toward the municipal baseball stadium. [Yokote City Agriculture and Forestry Maintenance Division note] The location information is clearly incorrect, so the point on the map is provisional. It is unknown whether this is the old Yokote Municipal Stadium in Yokote Park or another municipal stadium.
