[Regnum] A pensioner in the Irkutsk region saved his friend from a bear by shooting the animal twice with a rifle. This was reported on Wednesday, October 28, by the REN TV channel.
A bear attacked a 61-year-old man in a forested area of the Chunsky District. A 66-year-old friend of the man's came to his aid and shot the bear.
The victim managed to reach a populated area and seek medical attention. He was diagnosed with multiple open wounds to his head and arms and was hospitalized.
Earlier, in a national park in the Southern Urals, tourists spent an hour and a half fighting off a bear with songs and shouts. The animal was approximately 150 meters from the group, so the group climbed a slope of large rocks and began singing loudly to keep the animal from getting any closer. They also contacted emergency services. Everything ended well.
Previously, zoologist and game warden Mikhail Krechmar told Regnum news agency that the top three regions with the most bear activity were Primorsky Krai, Krasnoyarsk Krai, and Irkutsk Oblast. According to the expert, in these regions, bears are approaching people more often than usual due to a food shortage. Krechmar added that an improvement in the situation is not expected until next year, and regions should prepare for a sharp increase in conflicts with predators before the first snowfalls.

A polar bear attacked a 23-year-old worker in Taimyr.
A polar bear attacked a 23-year-old worker in Taimyr, Krasnoyarsk Krai. A source from REN TV reported this on Wednesday, October 28.
The incident occurred at the Sever Bay terminal near Dikson. The young man was outside the town and outside the company's premises when the predator attacked him.
Following the attack, the worker was diagnosed with scalp wounds to his head, back, and hands. He will be airlifted to the hospital.
According to a source from the RT television channel, the animal that attacked the man is already being sought.
Several days earlier, in the northern Krasnoyarsk Territory, a bear mauled a guard at a production facility. The incident occurred several kilometers from the village of Boguchany. The animal was killed.
Biological Sciences PhD Pavel Glazkov told Regnum News Agency that hungry predators, including bears and wolves, enter villages to attack cats and dogs. In the forest, pets won't scare off a bear either—a dog could lead the animal to a person, causing a tragedy.
