    Fortunate to escape with his life. Another example of human kind encroaching on mother nature's territory.

    Actually, mother bear's territory. Which is anywhere she goes with her cubs.

    Was this the same bear that killed that trapper about a month ago that was in JT.

    The Akaishi mountains which run as close as Yamanashi are also known as the Japanese Alps.

    while i feel sorry for the guy that got attacked, its pretty cool that there are wild bears within a couple hours of tokyo.

    the bears were in Okutama, which is IN Tokyo. Scary, since I hike around there a lot.
