Brown bear attacks have been reported almost daily across Russia since late summer 2026, with several recent deaths. Officials cite scarce natural food, access to waste and a growing bear population, while imposing alerts and access restrictions and killing bears deemed potentially conflict-prone. Regional authorities want broader powers to reduce the population.
