A bear allegedly broke into the home of an elderly couple in northern Japan and rummaged through their fridge, the latest in a growing number of bear intrusions in the country as the animals are driven into towns in search of food.
Mitsuo Matsubara, 87, found a bear in his kitchen on Monday night after hearing a noise and going to investigate, in the town of Shizukuishi in Iwate prefecture, according to Japanese media.
