BLACK BEAR
RECOVERED VISUAL EVIDENCE
VISUAL FRAGMENT MISSING.
WARD REVIEW NOTE:
No verified field image is attached to this creature file.
Another creature report with nothing I can pin to the board.
Bring back clear visual evidence and I may finally call one of these sightings confirmed.
KNOWN ACTIVITY SUMMARY:
Sightings report solitary movement with individuals displaying variable engagement behavior. Some sightings describe avoidance, while others report direct aggression at close range. Movement is steady, with engagement triggered by proximity thresholds.
CONTACT / THREAT ASSESSMENT:
Less consistent than yao guai, but still predictable within limits. The variation resolves into either avoidance or direct engagement. No overlap beyond that. Logging as moderate threat. - Ward, Foundation Records
