Official Black Bear Tokamachi, Niigata Dec 1, 2024, 03:00 PM

Description

Bear claw marks and droppings were found on two persimmon trees near Jūsha Shrine within the Shinmizu area. Based on the claw marks, the bear is believed to be quite large. It is estimated to have appeared about one to one-and-a-half weeks before the report (December 2), and it does not appear to have been present recently.
