Official Black Bear Odate Matsuki, Akita Sep 11, 2025, 05:45 PM

Description

Post: While driving from Matsuki toward Takadōkan Tennis Court, between Matsuki Children's Park and the city’s sewage treatment plant (the bus turnaround area), a bear over 1 m long jumped out from the bushes onto the road. The bear crossed the road and fled into the shrubs on the south side. No vehicle or person injuries. Because houses are nearby, please be cautious.
