The police said inquiries into what happened were ongoing but advised public to be cautions when walking in the area. Last Sunday a 63-year-old hunter was attacked by a she bear in the Postojna area, sustaining a broken arm, rib injuries and wounds on his back. This follows two such attacks in 2021.
