Wildlife conservation and resident awareness in rural areas

A case study wildlife of conservation activities and the arrival of storks in Sera town, Hiroshima prefecture

Abstract

In order to cope with the increasingly serious damage caused by wildlife, Sera Town, Hiroshima Prefecture, has not adequately addressed rare species. However, the arrival and nesting of the storks raised many concerns for a while, but it also served as an opportunity to raise the awareness of the town's residents toward the existing rare species.Discussions are therefore underway to further raise residents' awareness of nature and coexistence with these creatures.
