Official Black Bear Odate Negetoshinmachi, Akita Oct 27, 2025, 09:40 PM

Description

While looking for bears along Route 103, driving along a side road from Nekashito Ozawa Entrance toward Nekashito Akunuma, I found a four-legged bear standing near a waterway just before the forest on the right. It stared for about 10 seconds, then ran into the forest toward Shinmachi.
