“…Six healthy, sexually‐mature male bears (ID numbers, I, V, VI, VIII, XIII and XIV; age, 15–26 years) living on Sahoro Bear Mountain, Hokkaido, Japan (43°N, 142°E) were sampled during the breeding (June) and non‐breeding (October) seasons (Tsubota, Kanagawa, Takahashi, Yasue, & Fukunaga, 1985). Bears I, V, VI, and VIII were included in a previous study (Tomiyasu, Kondoh, et al, 2018). During the daytime, the bears can roam freely in an open, fenced mountainous area of 150,000 m 2 , where the vegetation is similar to that of wild‐bear habitats, then they are separated in a single location at night.…”
