That's queen Aya Ueto to you. And what a nice animal product she is wearing on her head. How cute. 10 out of 10 for a lovely, lovely lady.

No doubt after sleazing it up outside her doorstep.
Recommended action: punch the next newspaper man that comes to your door, be he Yomiuri, Mainichi or that beer company. Chances are he deserves it.

It's more likely to be a case of typically bad English wording and not a cowardly act.
And you are likely right.
男性は、足首をかまれたり太ももをひっかかれたりして軽いけがをしたほか、転倒した際に長男も顔にすり傷を負いました (and from another source) 男性は右の太ももと足首をかまれて軽いけが。はずみで息子は地面に落ち、頭にすり傷を 負った。
Looks like the father fell with the boy. The only coward here is the bear, and let's all be thankful she is dead now and will no longer be trying to eat 1-year-old babies. Case closed.

"shrug" I don't see how this could have ended differently
And that, is why you should leave it to seasoned vets such as myself.
Let's just review the key facts. Bear, not wearing shoes despite being outside, trespasses. Man, savoring the Sunday evening with his child after attending church earlier in the day, attacks bear oops is attacked by bear, and attempts to flee. Hunter/Fukui legend comes in to save the day, by blasting a hole through said aggressor animal. Animal's head is stuffed and mounted above fireplace as a reminder of who's boss. The End.

Important postscript.
two humans suddenly appear out of a hole in a wall
It's called a door cleo. A door. Civilised beings open and close them all the time in order to pass through. Now bears, on the other hand, think the rules don't apply to them, but they're wrong, as seen in the case of this very dead one. Let's just hope the 1-year-old boy of this story is ok, and makes good use of the fur for the upcoming winter.

The bear was probably equally surprised to see two humans suddenly appear out of a hole in a wall.
zzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ funny that you should choose the word equal. Here's the 911 gramps, bears are not people and are not on an equal footing. They don't even wear shoes. This dead bear should be charged with trespass as a lesson to all the other uncouth animals out there just thinking about it. Have some respect for people's property for god's sake.

A bear believed to be responsible for the attack
Who cares. Just kill it and put an end to these insurgents once and for all.
A member of a local chapter of sport hunters killed the animal
Give the man a beer, and yes, a trophy swamped on either side by bikini-clad ladies. Chalk up a win for the good guys. Mission accomplished.

Speak FOR yourself. I often decide what TO buy on roughly how MANY grams of carbs, fat and protein are in SOMETHING, based on the info provided, not just if it comes with butter and sour CREAM.

Yeah but they should be held accountable by some gun-wielding agency. A lot of information on labels is based on the company's own data, meaning they can pretty much write whatever they want. Take it with a grain of salt.

LIES! Here she is and the tower is only just over 400m!
Here's the real story. One of the comittee fat cats brought in a picture his daughter drew after eating too much natto and said fat cat convinved the rest of said comittee to use it after wining and dining at your expense! How do you like them apples?
