Description
Submission: In a farm road beside a rice field in Kosaka Town, Kosaka Aza Ōkibara 41, a bear about 0.9 m long emerged from the field. It briefly squared off with a light truck, then moved into the eastern woods. The field showed a bear-tilted depression where it likely fed on rice ears. About 300 m to a house.
