Ear Attack Japan News Today

The Japanese government is planning to trial an artificial intelligence system for spotting wild bears to better deal with an increasing number of attacks by the animals on humans, according to a government source.

A Japanese government panel has proposed the introduction of state-subsidized bear culls after attacks on humans surged to a record high this fiscal year.

Japan's Environment Ministry began deliberations on designating prefectural bear populations to assist their capture under a government subsidy system, amid a recent surge in attacks.
