Man attacked by bear at supermarket in Akita

He just wanted onigiri

Delicatessen area explains it, this bear is clearly VERY tired of eating berries and fish!

at around 06:20 twenty supermarket staff were preparing for the start of the day's business when a bear walked in...

have you tried keeping the doors locked until you're ready to open?

just saying!!

It wasn't a boo boo. Yogi just couldn't bear going into hibernation without some deli sandwiches in his picnic basket.

Near the delicatessen area?

I would expect the bear to head to either the honey or marmalade section.

I'm assuming that the bear didn't make it out alive? Poor thing.

Its time for a cull.

The populations have doubled and tripled in Honshu and Hokkaido.

Mine is running into one of those creepy European-style circus clowns. While grocery shopping.
