17| The Kasagake: The Worst Bear Attack in Japanese History

Tragedy with a View

Join us as we discuss the man, the myth, the legend, the Kasagake.
Or maybe, in this case, it was just a really smart, really hungry bear.

The outdoors are a beautiful that can be filled with light and bliss and many different ways to bring yourself closer to those you love and yourself. But they can also be filled with terror and death, imminent and oppressive. Join me as we dig into these stories that inspire you to be just a little bit more careful while you’re in the outdoors.
