新宿駅から特急でおよそ1時間のJR中央線大月駅。Otsuki Station on the JR Chuo Line, about an hour by limited express from Shinjuku Station.
今朝切り倒された一本のカキノキ。A single persimmon tree cut down this morning.
果実を見れば歯形がくっきりと残っています。Looking at the fruit, tooth marks are clearly left on it.
クマがカキを狙ったのはおとといの朝7時ごろ。The bear targeted the persimmons at around 7 a.m. the day before yesterday.
当時の映像を番組独自で入手しました。We have independently obtained footage from that time.
ガサガサと枝が揺れるカキノキ。A persimmon tree with branches rustling.
姿を表したのは体重100キロの親グマです。What appeared was a 100-kilogram mother bear.
さらにその背を覆うように子グマが飛び出してきました。Furthermore, a cub jumped out as if covering her back.
撮影をした男性は駅徒歩10分物件なんですよ。The man who filmed it says it's a property 10 minutes on foot from the station.
さすがにクマが出ると思わなかった。I never expected a bear to appear.
足を止め振り返る親グマ、子グマが合流するのを待つと、駆け足再開。The mother bear stops and looks back, waiting for the cub to catch up, then starts running again.
林の中へと姿を消しますが、They disappear into the woods, but
子グマはついていかず、何かを探しているのかあたりをキョロキョロすると、the cub doesn't follow, looking around as if searching for something,
カキノキの下から小さな体がもう一つ。then another small body appears from under the persimmon tree.
どうやら兄弟を待っていたようです。2It seems it was waiting for its sibling. 2
頭は少しだけじゃれ合い、親グマが向かった林に入っていきました。After playfully nuzzling heads just a little, they went into the woods where the mother bear had headed.
同じ個体と見られる親子グマは別のカメラにも、The parent and cubs believed to be the same bears were caught on another camera too,
あの親グマが一番上のところに子供たちが下で食べていたんですね。That mother bear was at the very top with the cubs eating below.
親が落としてたんです。The parent was knocking them down.
何かそんなような感じでしたね。It felt something like that.
クマは初めてですので、ちょっとすごい恐怖心ありましたね。This is my first time seeing a bear, so I felt quite a lot of fear.
住民の不安が募る中、地元の猟友会はもどかしさを抱えています。As residents' anxiety grows, the local hunting association is feeling frustrated.
戻ってはいないと思いますね。I don't think it has returned.
食べ物がある間はここで食べて、なくなれば戻るかもしれないですけど。While there is food it will eat here, and when it's gone it may go back.
これの効果もはっきりしないですけど、まあ当面これしかやることはないんで、緊急銃猟も民家に入ってもなかなか条件がありますから、だから法的には難しい。The effect of this is unclear too, but for now this is all we can do, and emergency shooting is difficult even if they enter homes because there are conditions, so legally it's difficult.
大月市ではハチミツもターゲットに、In Otsuki City, honey has also become a target,
親子クマが現れた場所から車で8分の地区ではミツバチの養蜂箱が被害に遭いました。In a district 8 minutes by car from where the parent and cub bears appeared, beehives were damaged.
この犬があのずっと夜中鳴いてたんで。This dog kept barking all night.
あの何かあったのかなと思って外を見たらすぐこの玄関を開けたら横にクマがいて。I wondered if something had happened and looked outside, and as soon as I opened this front door, there was a bear right beside me.
15日の午前1時ごろ愛犬ポチが発したSOS。An SOS sent out by beloved dog Pochi at around 1 a.m. on the 15th.
そこにいたのは体長1.5メートルほどの成獣だったと言います。They say what was there was an adult about 1.5 meters long.
目があったクマはすぐに立ち去ったためポチも飼い主も無事でした。The bear, meeting their eyes, left immediately, so both Pochi and the owner were safe.
しかしHowever
トイレに入ったらなんかクマみたいな音がするみたいな、グーグー鳴るような感じの声ですかね。When I went into the bathroom, I heard something like a bear, a grunting growling kind of voice.
もう壁のすぐ向こう側にいるなって感じで。I felt it was right on the other side of the wall.
壁一枚を隔ててクマ。A bear separated by just one wall.
不安なまま夜を明かすと、敷地内の養蜂箱が壊されていたのです。After spending the night still anxious, they found the beehives on the property had been destroyed.
まだ蜂の巣箱だけで済んで良かったですけど、できれば箱罠とかクマ用のやつかけてもらえれば一番ありがたいなと思ったんですけど。It's good that only the beehives were damaged, but if possible I'd be most grateful if they could set a box trap for bears or something.
新宿から小田急線でおよそ1時間の秦野駅周辺にも現れました。They also appeared around Hadano Station, about an hour from Shinjuku on the Odakyu Line.
駅から直線距離で1.5キロ、高取山公園に設置されたセンサーカメラが捉えたツキノワグマ。An Asiatic black bear captured by a sensor camera installed in Takatoriyama Park, 1.5 kilometers in a straight line from the station.
体長はおよそ1.2メートルと見られます。Its body length is estimated at about 1.2 meters.

養蜂箱で、あ、養蜂箱だったんですけど、そちらの方がこのお宅の方が来られた時に折れてるのこの上から見た時に見えたのでIt was a beehive, uh, it was a beehive, but when the people from this house came, you could see from above that it was broken
近づいてI got closer
その時にまああの3メートルぐらいで鉢合わせたという状況でした。At that time, well, we ran into each other at about 3 meters.

このこのもびっくりしたみたい。ここThis, this one seemed surprised too. Here
ここだここだ。Here, here it is.
はい。Yes.
そういう向こう、うわあ！Like that, over there, 'whoa!'
って言ったんです。That's what I said.
ええ、だから向こうも下がって向こうに逃げていった。Yeah, so it also backed off and ran away over there.
今朝改めて取材すると、養蜂箱が食い荒らされていました。When we interviewed again this morning, the beehive had been ravaged.
こちら住宅も広がる神奈川県松田町の周辺では、今月に入って別の個体と見られる複数のクマが出没しているといいます。Around Matsuda Town in Kanagawa Prefecture, where houses also spread, multiple bears believed to be different individuals have been appearing since the start of this month.
地元の猟師は、A local hunter says,
複数はいる。There are multiple.
いるいる。There are, there are.
間違いねえ。No doubt about it.
それはいる。They're there.
あの実際に私もまあおととし見た見たので、3頭以上はいると思う。Well, I actually saw them myself the year before last, so I think there are at least 3.

あの子が行ったから帰って、帰ってきたらクマと出会ったからで、顔中Because after that child went and came back, he encountered a bear, and his whole face
血だらけで、どこもかも血だらけやったもんで、その後って私がおろおろしとって、番号もわからんもんでね、子供がいて119だって言ったもんで、It was covered in blood, everything was covered in blood, and after that I was flustered and didn't know the number, and my child said it's 119, so,
一生懸命119番だけを押したわ。I desperately just pressed 119.
帰るのも怖くて。I'm scared to even go home.
命に別状はありませんが、男性は今も入院中だということです。His life is not in danger, but the man is still hospitalized.
クマに襲われ眼球破裂、被害者の治療、その後の生活はどうなるのか。Attacked by a bear with eyeball rupture: what about the victim's treatment and life afterwards.
5月5日単語のチェックにクマに襲われ右の眼球が破裂する重傷を負った農家の男性を訪ねました。On May 5th, we visited the farmer who was attacked by a bear while checking words and suffered a serious injury with his right eyeball ruptured.
極端な話をすれば一回死んでしまってたとしてまあもがったなという気持ちでTo put it extremely, I felt as if I had died once and struggled through
じゃあやれることからやっていこうかなという気持ちの変化はあってI felt like I should start with what I can do
右目はサングラス、左目はクリアレンズの特注メガネは今も手放せません。He still can't let go of his custom-made glasses with a sunglass lens on the right and a clear lens on the left.
突発的。Sudden.
番組では襲われた一ヶ月後に男性を取材。Our program interviewed the man one month after he was attacked.
破裂した右目も少しずつ回復しているといいます。He says his ruptured right eye is gradually recovering.
2月にまぶたの手術をするんですけれどもまだ自力では開かない。I'm having eyelid surgery in February, but I still can't open it on my own.
めっちゃ頑張ればこの眉毛の筋肉で開くみたいな。If I try really hard, I can open it using this eyebrow muscle, like.
なんとかまぶたを開けるようになったものの見え方には問題が。Although he has somehow become able to open his eyelid, there is a problem with how he sees.
これが困ったことにですね、まぶたの手術をしても、普通水平って目の感覚でこうじゃないですか。The troubling thing is, even after eyelid surgery, normally horizontal should feel like this, right.
こうなんですよね。But it's like this.
こう見てもこう見ても右目がこうだ。No matter how I look at it, my right eye is like this.
ちょっとじゃ筋肉のバランスが良くなくて傾いているんじゃないかという。Maybe the muscle balance isn't good, so it's tilted.
視力自体はあるんで、これで、ある程度歩けるんですけれども、I do have vision itself, so with this I can walk to some extent,
世界が15度ほど傾いている。The world is tilted about 15 degrees.

これはクマに顔面を攻撃された別の患者のCT画像。This is a CT image of another patient whose face was attacked by a bear.
顎の骨が大きく損傷しているのがわかります。You can see that the jawbone is severely damaged.
爪でギュッとこういくんで長い傷になってしかもあの五本の爪とかで複雑にもぐちゃぐちゃになってしまうんですよね。Because they claw with a tight grip, it becomes a long wound, and with five claws it gets all mangled and complicated.
だからもういろんな眼科の先生に協力いただくということになりますね。So we have to get cooperation from various ophthalmologists.
まああの顔のところであれば形成外科の先生も入ってきますし、この口の周りだったら口腔外科、耳鼻科、目の方に行くと眼科。Well, if it's the face area, plastic surgeons also get involved, and around the mouth it's oral surgery, ENT, and for the eyes, ophthalmology.
骨をも砕く破壊力を持つ牙。Fangs with destructive power that can even crush bone.
長く湾曲する鋭い爪。Long, curved, sharp claws.
秋田大学では、顔面を狙われるクマ被害に備え、特殊な素材を使った帽子の開発に乗り出しました。At Akita University, in preparation for bear attacks targeting the face, they have begun developing a hat using special material.
まあこの首の後ろとか横も守れるという形になってます。Well, it's shaped to protect the back and sides of the neck too.
この素材がやっぱり普段使いできるように、硬いヘルメットじゃなくてこう帽子なんですけども、しっかりクマの爪とか牙から守れると。This material is meant for everyday use, so it's not a hard helmet but a hat, yet it can firmly protect against bear claws and fangs.
いざクマが来たという時は防御してあるんですね。When a bear actually comes, you are protected.
首の後ろで手を組んで、でかがんでこう小さくなると。Clasp your hands behind your neck, and crouch down to make yourself small.
でクマがグッと来た時に、もうここがすでにこう守れるようになってるんですね。And when the bear comes at you, this area is already protected like this.
ここ守れますし、この横のここも守れるんで、首のここ血管が走ってるんですけども、それも大丈夫と。You can protect here, and also here on the side, where blood vessels run in the neck, that's also okay.
あとは耳も守れてる、ここから顔も入ってこない。Also the ears are protected, and the face can't get in from here.
両方守れるようになっていると。Both sides are protected.
来年度中の販売を目指しているということです。They aim to start selling it within the next fiscal year.
改めてクマに襲われた現場を訪れると、When we visited the site where he was attacked by the bear again,
いざ襲われてしまえば、やっぱり声を張り上げるぐらいしかできない。Once you're actually attacked, all you can do is scream at the top of your lungs.
力もめちゃめちゃ強いんで、They're incredibly strong,
まあ犬で言えばケルベロスみたいな感じじゃないですか。In terms of dogs, it's like Cerberus, isn't it.
ギリシャ神話における冥界の番犬ケルベロスを引き合いに出し、クマの恐怖を語った男性。The man described the terror of the bear, comparing it to Cerberus, the guard dog of the underworld in Greek mythology.
できればあの接触しないように遠ざけるか、If possible, keep it away so you don't come into contact,
もう接触した時点でどれか一本あきらめて防御姿勢を取るなり、Once contact is made, give up one limb or take a defensive posture,
声を上げるなりしてあの逃げていくの待つしかできないと思います。I think all we can do is make some noise or something and wait for it to run away.
