Japanese city shutters schools to find bear
The authorities of Otsunomiya City in Japan are conducting intensive efforts to search for a black bear that has been seen more than 12 times in the area, amid the closure of all 94 city schools for the second consecutive day. The bear is estimated to weigh around 100 kilograms and was last spotted approximately 700 meters from the campus. There has been an increase in bear attacks in recent years, with more incidents occurring in urban areas. It is believed that a decline in natural resources due to climate change has led these bears to venture closer to residential areas in search of food.
