## Resource

Its a big day in Man Eaters History. For the first time ever, we are going back and retelling a story from the early days of the show! Today we rediscover the horror behind the Sankebetsu brown bear incident. In 1915, a huge brown bear descended on a tiny village in Hokkaido, Japan. Over several terrifying days it broke into homes, hunted families, and left seven people dead in one of the most shocking animal attacks ever recorded. This is the chilling true story of the Sankebetsu Brown Bear Incident.
