Cairns Tropical Zoo


I have visited Cairns Tropical Zoo before it shuts doors after 35 years. The popular zoo had the largest wildlife collection in the Far North, boasting crocodiles, alligators, Komodo dragons, cassowaries, brolgas, wombats, pademelons, cotton top tamarins, lemurs and dingoes. I took part in a unique Australian experience at Cairns night zoo and see local animals in their nocturnal state there. I enjoyed a traditional Australian BBQ dinner of steak, sausages and seafood before an escorted tour around the zoo to meet the creatures of the night.



オーストラリアのケアンズにあるケアンズ・トロピカル・ズーは小規模な動物園ですがコアラやウォンバットと記念撮影が出来る貴重な動物園でした。夜の動物園ツアーが有名でしたが残念なことに今年3月で閉園となりました。



I could see nocturnal activities of nocturnal animals at the zoo.

 About 5 years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. I have visited various places of Japan to see the health consequence of the accident.
 Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the accident among Japanese creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident in Japan.
 Our Prime Minister Abe assures that "The situation is under control. The influence of the contaminated water is completely blocked within Fukushima. There are no health-related problems until now and there will never be health problems." He also said that "Tokyo is 250 kilometers away from Fukushima, and the kind of danger that you imagine does not exist in Tokyo. Tokyo is a very safe city."
 As PM Abe said, Australia is very far away from Fukushima too, Aussie have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. Aussie have already forgotten the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, because they think radioactive materials cannot reach there.
 We know there is no problem for childbirth and child rearing in Australia. So Aussie are living without any concern about the accident. I continue to visit various places in the world to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures which are more sensitive to radioactive materials from the environment. It is important to see their health for our safety.
