National Crafts Museum เหตุการณ์หมีดำ

At around 19:30 on April 28, 2026, a black bear was reported near Kariyasu Elementary School in Tsubata Kariyasu, after a school staff member who had seen it contacted the principal and the report was passed on to local agriculture and forestry officials. In Tsubata, another bear was also spotted near Kurikara Fudoji on April 26, 2026, showing that the town is still seeing bears close to familiar landmarks and roads.

The busiest places in this area keep clustering around Tsubata, Nomi City, and Kanazawa City, with sightings turning up near homes, schools, roads, and temple grounds rather than deep in the mountains alone. Activity surged in November 2025 with 67 incidents and stayed high in October 2025 with 61 and June 2025 with 64, before dropping into winter, and the broader record now stands at 1,753 black bear sightings in National Crafts Museum country.
