Official 2 Black Bears Daisen Osawagotera, Akita May 24, 2026, 10:45 PM

Description

Two bears about 1 m long (not a parent and child; possibly two juvenile bears) ran from the east-side mountain down to the Osawa River, then returned to the mountain. On the morning of April 23 another bear was also seen in the same way, so there may be a settled population in the area.
