A New Zealander lost his arm in a bear attack during a recovery run in Japan, part of a record year of bear incidents linked to climate change.
A 32-year-old New Zealander, Billy Halloran, survived a bear attack in Myoko, Japan, while on a recovery run after an ultramarathon.
Attacked by two Asiatic black bears, he lost his arm at the elbow and suffered severe leg injuries before fleeing a kilometer to reach his wife.
He underwent three surgeries, including a hip graft and metal plates in his arm, and is recovering with long-term rehabilitation ahead.
The incident occurred amid a record number of bear attacks in Japan in 2025, with over 100 injuries and at least seven deaths, attributed to climate change pushing bears into human areas.
The government plans stricter bear population controls, while Halloran remains determined to return to running and nature, now considering bear spray and snowboarding for recovery.
