This is something that cannot be overlooked as a traffic channel. Last year, the number of collisions between bears and trains was the highest ever. Furthermore, there were trains that carried canned food for bears until the morning. No, it's not just about traffic anymore. It can be said to be a big shock for Hokkaido. According to an interview by the Hokkaido Shimbun newspaper, the Hokkaido Hunters' Association, which oversees the hunters, is considering a policy of "not exterminating bears." The reason is a conflict with the administration. It seems that the Hokkaido Prefectural Government has made another mistake. The Public Safety Commission, which started it all, is an agency directly under Governor Suzuki. Are they planning to turn the whole of Hokkaido into an "aggressive bear ranch"? This is very interesting news.
