Official Black Bear Akita, Akita Jul 6, 2025, 04:00 PM

Description

Post: On the Akita Expressway, heading from Akita-Chuo Interchange toward Noshiro, about 1–2 minutes in, one bear about 1 m long appeared from the left. It was about 200 m from the car; when we slowed, it came to the center of the road but quickly returned to the left wooded area. It looked emaciated.
