When a bear shows up in Tokyo π₯ Japan Walking Tour
Bears are not jokes in Japan. Since April 2025, bears attacks in Japan has been increasing. Over 100 people have been injured. These are not just remote incidents anymore. They are spreading into places people live and travel. What used to rare mountain trail encounters now happen in everyday places. A bear broke into a supermarket in GMA Prefecture, sending shoppers fleeing. In Akita, a farmer was attacked while picking mushrooms behind his house. In Hokkaido, cubs were spotted near residential area. Experts say that food shortages, climate change, rural area depopulation, and human trash together are driving more bears into human territory. Not out of aggression, but survival. So, how to be safe? Experts also suggest several things to stay safe while exploring Japan wildside. Make noises so bears are not startled. Do not hike alone. Avoid leaving food and waste in or near your car or campsite. If you see a bear, stake lamb and back away slowly. Never run or scream. [Music]

…give them more habitat, and feed them well, in regular spots, at regular times, daily, DEEP in their own territories.
This is one of the reason why bear hunters was needed long time ago in japan. Now here we are..
People are spreading where bears live.
Please stay safe in Japan everyone. This is a very dangerous situation. Keep your loved ones safe, sending loveβ€β€β€.
Looks like itβs time for hunters to take care of business. Sucks because at the end of the day they animals doing animal stuff but itβs getting dangerous.
In Canada bear/deer population and territories naturally expands over time. Licenced hunting keeps their population in check and keeps them away from cities.
The duality of humans. One comment says give them food and another says make them into food.
Bruh you cannot forget to feed the wildlife πβ€π. Grow more food. PROTECT YOUR FARMERS β€
Stay clam! (Calm is correct π)
Are bears scared of clams or something? π€
Bear spears. Bring two
π€£π€£π€£ in our country we almost eat all of them..
Sounds to me like they need a bear hunting season. This is almost certainly due to overpopulation of bears; there's too many bears for them to remain isolated from humans, so they're competing for territory with humans. That's when their numbers need to be thinned out, because we're at the top of the food chain and shouldn't be subjected to the risk of cohabitating with bears when we don't have to. Come on, Japan, go samurai on those lesser creatures.
Not into human territory, back into their territory
