ฮิโนะออโตพลาซา เหตุการณ์หมีดำ

Hino Auto Plaza has recent black bear activity centered on Aikawa Tashiro, where on May 5, 2026 a small very black shape, likely a cub, was noticed across the river after it reacted to the sound of a bell near the trail from Mount Kyogatake to the Hansobo bus stop. Another close call came on March 30, 2026 in Hachioji, where a black bear ran across the hiking trail on Mount Jinba about 50 to 100 meters ahead of hikers and quickly fled.

The most active ground here has been Hachioji, Akiruno, and Aikawa, with reports also coming from Kiyokawa and Hachioji streamside areas, so the pressure is not limited to one corner of the map. Activity was strongest in October 2025 with 40 incidents, stayed heavy through August and July with 29 and 33, and then eased into winter before climbing back to 7 in April 2026; this area has recorded 504 black bear sightings overall.
