After the tragic death of 26-year-old jogger Andrea Papi, the rangers led by Claudio and Roberto are feverishly hunting for the "problem bear" JJ4. But as the fear of bears grows, the dispute between animal rights activists and bear opponents escalates and thorny questions arise. Should JJ4 be killed? And: who owns the forest and nature?
