The bears began to often go out into residential areas in the Tomsk region. Activities in the forests were limited until November 1 due to the threat of attacks by these animals. A high-level regime was introduced in the region. 100 applications for a cash payment for each bear caught have been received by game wardens and the Department of Game and Fisheries since October 5. From that day we began to encourage hunters, paying 30 thousand rubles personal income tax in the amount of 13% for each person, said Governor Vladimir Mazur. According to him, the new index showed effectiveness - appeals about the departure of bears to the settlements were much less. But the predators are still coming out, so the payments will go into effect at the end of the year as planned.
