Lake Tofutsu, where thousands of waterfowl come in spring and autumn, was registered under the Ramsar Convention in 2005 as a wetland of international importance as a stopover, wintering and breeding ground for migratory birds. White-tailed eagles, a national natural monument, and red-crowned cranes, a special natural monument, breed on the lakeshore from spring to summer. (*The tour period is the time of the year when there are the fewest wild birds.)
Lake Tofutsu is a coastal lake that was originally a sea, but was separated from the sea by the accumulation of sand, and it is still a brackish lake that is partly connected to the Sea of Okhotsk. The lake, where freshwater and seawater mix, is rich in nutrients, and is rich in aquatic plants and seafood that birds feed on. Also, making use of its rich marine resources, fishing has been carried out since ancient times, and oysters and freshwater clams are also cultivated. On the other hand, the shallowing of the lake and changes in topography due to the influx of sediment and other factors have progressed rapidly over the past several decades. is needed. This tour is operated for the purpose of surveying the ecosystem during kayaking and using it for conservation.
