In Miass, Chelyabinsk region, a wild bear damaged an apiary by feeding on honey and discarded apples. Specialists from the Miass branch of the "Oblokhotrybolsoyuz" found traces of the animal at the site.

According to Alexander Shalamov, chairman of "Oblokhotrybolsoyuz," the bear destroyed three hives and ate apples lying near the apiary. He advised caution and to avoid the forest unless necessary.

The bear came from the Ilmen Nature Reserve, where hunting it is legally prohibited. In September, rescuers helped a group of tourists cornered by a bear in the Zyuratkul National Park.
