Bears in search of food in the Aktepe highland of the Söğüteli village of the Kürtün district of Gümüşhane damaged the highland houses. The bears that entered the houses tried to get out by breaking the windows while they were looking for food in the kitchen and rooms, while damaging the houses to a great extent. While a bear who broke the glass was injured, traces of bear’s blood were found in almost every part of the houses due to the cuts. Musa Keskin, who went to the Aktepe plateau and saw the damaged houses, recorded the extent of the damage done by the bears to the houses with a mobile phone camera.
