This is an attempt to make Hisaka Island in Goto City, Nagasaki Prefecture a new wintering ground for cranes.
A local junior high school student collaborated with a junior high school student in Izumi City, Kagoshima Prefecture to try to make a model of a crane so that the cranes passing over the island could appeal from the ground.
Many vines fly to the Izumi field in Kagoshima prefecture, but on the other hand, the danger of infectious diseases has been pointed out due to overcrowding, and it is an issue to decentralize wintering areas.
On the 18th, on Hisaka Island in Goto City, Nagasaki Prefecture, nine local students from all schools in Hisaka exchanged opinions online with students from Izumishi Kakusho Gakuen in Kagoshima Prefecture on the need to decentralize cranes.
After that, the students in Kuka made three hooded crane models of about 130 cm in order to appeal to the vines passing over the island from the ground.
The crane model produced by Tsuruso Gakuen in Izumi City has already been sent to Hisaka Island, and environmental protection groups have also installed four crane models around the roost of the cranes that have been maintained on the island. increase.
The reclaimed land near Kuka Naka is on the route of vine migration, as it was confirmed that about 70 birds arrived in February, and we will focus on vine observation activities in Kuka. ..
A male student in Hisaka said, "I want to do my best to create an environment where Tsuru can drop in at Hisaka Island with peace of mind and take off slowly."
