In the Jangsu-gun, Jeollabuk-do, half-breasted bears were found that were not registered with the government.

According to the data submitted by National Assembly Park Park, a member of National Assembly Environmental Labor Relations Commissioner Shin Chang-hyun, on June 14 this year, we received a report saying that we saw a black bear with 'V' shaped white hair in the mountains in Beonam-myeon, Jangsu-gun.

The area where the bears were found is 15 km from the border of Jirisan National Park, where the government released half-breasted bears to restore endangered species.

The bear was not equipped with a marker and a transmitter attached to the ears of the bear's ears.

An official from the National Park Service said, "As a result of analyzing the gene through the hairs left on the site, it was identified as a male bear, a cub of a half-breasted bear, which was radiated to Jirisan."

The National Park Service has installed three live art frames and five unmanned cameras in the area of ​​Beonam-myeon, Jangsu-gun, to monitor them in real time.

According to the government's restoration project, which started in 2006, there are 64 hedgehog bears currently active in the wild, such as Jirisan, except for the ones found.

Although it is unlikely that a black bear will attack a person, experts advise that if it encounters a black bear, it is better to stay away from its back without looking away just in case.
