Detailed Information/Report on Activities

In the Sea of Japan region, the rich diversity of plants and wildlife are produced in specific weather like heavy snow fall. On the Sado Island, the rich ecosystem is still maintained because large herbivores don’t live in this Island. We aim to study about the value of nature in the East Asian region by observing such natural environment and learning about the latest efforts on conservation.
