I visit Ueno Zoological Gardens many times every year. Because there are various animals in the zoo and it is fun to meet them. Though I have already reported the zoo several times, whenever I visit the zoo I can find something wonderful there. Now we can see many baby animals that were born here. They are so cute that I am going to visit there again and again. Ueno Zoological Gardens is the oldest and biggest zoo in Japan. I think some animals are more sensitive to radioactive materials of the environment than us. So I go there to see effects of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. Though I have never found any impact of the accident, I think it is important to see creatures of Tokyo because they teach us the environmental health.

2 years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, I have visited various places from south to north of Japan. Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the accident among creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident. So people in Tokyo have already forgotten the nuclear power plant accident because Tokyo is very far away from the site and radioactive materials cannot reach here. I think there is no problem for child birth and child rearing in Tokyo. So people in Tokyo are living without any concern about the accident.
I continue to visit various places in Japan to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures and know how they are. It is important to see their health for our safety.
