Bear attacks in Japan are increasing due to factors like rural depopulation, warmer weather, and changes in food availability, leading to more human-bear encounters. Precautions include making noise while hiking, avoiding dawn and dusk, securing food, and carrying bear spray.

Yeah I think I will need a bear spray. That's scary though. For now I hike in quite popular spots, so risk is minimal.
