＼Let's protect the lives of rare creatures living in metsä! /
In metsä village surrounded by forests and lakes, rich in nature,It is designated as an endangered species II.Did you know that the "Tokyo salamander" lives?The Tokyo salamander is a living creature that moves back and forth between the forest and the waterside, and in fact, lives right next to our lives.
By learning about living things and the land in metsä where they live, children can develop respect for the natural environment and learn about the possibility that biodiversity conservation activities can benefit human life.
In the first event, participants will enter Metsä's backyard, which is not normally open to the public, and learn about the Tokyo salamander, which has a special ecology, while interacting with its natural environment and creating an environment that is easier to live in.All participants will also receive a booklet to learn about the Tokyo salamander, which is not for sale!In the spring after spawning, we plan to hold an egg observation event as the second event!
Let's work together with a creature observation professional to create a natural environment that is comfortable for creatures such as the Tokyo salamander, and for us as well!
