Official Black Bear Tokamachi, Niigata Jul 31, 2021, 10:20 PM

Description

When I left the house to cut grass, I spotted one bear about 50 m away. Its body length was approximately 1 m. It ran into the grass on the north side. I could not confirm where it exited the grass. The city website received an email reporting a sighting on the same day at around 14:20 on National Route 117 in the Imozawa area. It is believed to be the same bear.
