Stricter bear laws needed.

Climate change affecting food sources and hibernation times is a key factor, but as Japan's aging population shrinks, humans are leaving rural areas, and that is also leaving room for bears to move in.

Of course /sarc

Hand guns are illegal in Japan, as well as swords.
Bears are not illegal in Japan.

The police in Hokkaido have told locals that when they visit their family’s grave, if it’s in the mountains, not to put food/liquor as is customary because the bears will eat it and attack others.

I skimmed the title. My head said, โ€œHitlerโ€™s bodyโ€. I wondered, โ€œWho are they calling Hitler now?โ€

More people are killed by bears in Japan than are killed by bears in the United States.

Amazing by true.

Excellent Reuters article about how Japan’s rigid gun control laws may be getting in the way of bear control.
