Bears are getting closer to the capital: a predator was spotted near Ratomka
A bear was spotted again in the Minsk district – it came out onto a country road between Ratomka and the village of Kryzhoŭka. A resident of Minsk published a photo of the animal in Threads.
Since this place is very popular among summer residents, cyclists, and local residents who walk their dogs there, the publication caused a lively discussion. Many commentators write that they are concerned about such news. Those who regularly visit these forests noted that they used to meet only moose calves, deer, or hares there, but were not prepared for the appearance of bears.
Some summer residents stated that they are now afraid to return there and will plan their routes cautiously. "I have a dacha there, now it's scary," "We always ride our bikes on this road," "I knew it! I won't go there anymore," people write in the comments.
Some users doubted the authenticity of the footage and suggested that the photo might have been generated by artificial intelligence. However, the author of the post refutes this.
