Description
[Report] While heading from Akita City toward Tenno, I was waiting at an intersection for the traffic light when I witnessed a bear crossing the national road from the post office side to the 7-Eleven side. Its body length was about 1.0 m. There were pedestrians nearby, so it was a dangerous situation.
