Candidate of biological sciences, zoologist Mikhail Kerchmer said that in the spring of 2027 there may be new cases of hungry bears appearing near populated areas in southern Siberia. Mikhail Kerchmer, an expert on conflicts between large animals and humans, reported possible new cases of hungry bears entering populated areas in southern Siberia in the spring of 2027, TASS reports. According to him, the scope of the problem will be less than in the fall of 2026. "If the bear has no fat reserves, it will again go to populated areas. In the spring, of course, there will be much less of them than now. A lot of bears will die in their dens, but there will be trouble," Kretschmer said. The expert explained the likelihood of the animals reawakening due to a lack of fat reserves after hibernation, as well as a lack of available food in early spring. As the newspaper VZGLYAD wrote, on Thursday, the zoologist and gamekeeper Mikhail Kerchmer reported that there are no prerequisites for the invasion of grizzly bears in the Moscow region.
