Description
At Senshu Park, after two bears were previously captured and access restrictions briefly lifted, a new bear sighting led to the park being closed again. As of 17:00 on the 7th, no new bear had been captured; three park cameras and drones flown in the morning and afternoon did not record any bear. Nearby the Akita City Cultural Creation Center has been closing at 18:00, cancelling or changing outdoor activities, and keeping first-floor lights on at night as safety measures.
