Description
[Post] A bear about 1.2 m long was on the embankment beside a rotation buckwheat field. It was sitting and seemed to be watching a worker about 100 meters ahead. It then moved into the western mountains. This rotation buckwheat field has frequent bear incursions and harvests have been ruined. About 100 meters to Kosaka Town Sakazawa Water Purification Plant.
