Official Black Bear Sanjo 荒沢, Niigata Oct 8, 2020, 03:00 PM

Description

While cycling on Yamanami Road heading toward Yagimae, just after passing the intersection with Prefectural Route Nagaoka-Tochio-Maki within the Arasawa area, a bear appeared from the brush on the left rear (side of the settlement) and chased the bicycle for about 10 meters. The bear fled toward the mountains after a horn from a car approaching from behind sounded.
