Official Black Bear Yokote 金沢中野, Akita Nov 3, 2025, 09:15 PM

Description

[Post] (11/4 post) In the dim night with few streetlights, I saw something ahead of the headlight. It had a stocky build, was black, and about the size of a medium dog, so it could be a bear cub. It ran into a private yard. It wasn't clearly seen, so there are uncertainties; this report is late.
