- A bear has broken into a spa hotel in northern Japan.
- The animal searched for food for over four hours and was finally killed by emergency services.
- A new record number of bear attacks has been recorded in Japan this year. Between April and October alone, 100 people were attacked, 13 of whom died.
In the northern Japanese city of Yonezawa, a bear broke into a spa hotel. However, the predator was far more interested in the food inside than the traditional "onsen" bath.
The predator, which was over one meter tall, rumbled around the building for four hours before it was killed by emergency services. "It was very scary," says the owner of the inn, "all the fridge doors were ripped open."
Fortunately, there were no people in the building at the time of the attack. Bears are killing and injuring more and more people in Japan. Between April and October, a total of 100 people were attacked across the country. There were 13 deaths. The government has already sent soldiers to Akita Prefecture, which is particularly affected.
