You haven’t run into bear’s or boars? I went hitchhiking in Yamanashi twice to get to an eco village and then I heard some stories about bears nearby and I have been too scared to go again 😅

Thank you for your comments, I am very sorry for the inconvenience!
Actually, it turns out that there are already no bears in the trekking area I am writing about.
In the Kyushu region of Japan, wild bears are extinct.
Bears are really scary and I have an overwhelming lack of knowledge on how to deal with bears, so I try to stay away when there is information about bears being present😅.
However, boars are present in the area where we trekked and camped this time. The campsite manager told us to be careful because of the possibility of boars, deer and monkeys appearing. Wild animals are scary.
We need to be especially careful with our food. Wild animals are attracted by the smell of food, so we humans are responsible for managing our food.
I think a bell and some spray is enough not to worry but I hope I have someone to join me, especially in the forest!
Black bears usually don’t attack people but sometimes they are curious and accidentally hurt humans or our sudden behavior startles them. Either way I’m still scared of them.
If you come to Tokyo let me know. I want to have more meetups in Japan!
旅をいっぱい楽しんでください！^_^
