  • Rapid Range Expansion of the Feral Raccoon (Procyon Lotor) in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, and Its Impact on Native Organisms
    Rapid range expansion of the feral raccoon (Procyon lotor) in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, and its impact on native organisms Hisayo Hayama, Masato Kaneda, and Mayuh Tabata Kanagawa Wildlife Support Network, Raccoon Project. 1-10-11-2 Takamoridai, Isehara 259-1115, Kanagawa, Japan Abstract The distribution of feral raccoons (Procyon lotor) was surveyed in Kanagawa Prefecture, central Japan. Information was collected mainly through use of a questionnaire to municipal offices, environment NGOs, and hunting specialists. The raccoon occupied 26.5% of the area of the prefecture, and its distribution range doubled over three years (2001 to 2003). The most remarkable change was the range expansion of the major population in the south-eastern part of the prefecture, and several small populations that were found throughout the prefecture. Predation by feral raccoons on various native species probably included endangered Tokyo salamanders (Hynobius tokyoensis), a freshwater Asian clam (Corbicula leana), and two large crabs (Helice tridens and Holometopus haematocheir). The impact on native species is likely to be more than negligible. Keywords: Feral raccoon; Procyon lotor; distribution; questionnaire; invasive alien species; native species; Kanagawa Prefecture INTRODUCTION The first record of reproduction of the feral raccoon presence of feral raccoons between 2001 and 2003 in Kanagawa Prefecture was from July 1990, and it and the reliability of the information. One of the was assumed that the raccoon became naturalised in issues relating to reliability is possible confusion with this prefecture around 1988 (Nakamura 1991). the native raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides; Damage by feral raccoons is increasing and the Canidae), which has a similar facial pattern with a number of raccoons, captured as part of the wildlife black band around the eyes, and a similar body size to pest control programme, is also rapidly increasing.

  • To All Citizens of Shimane Prefecture, on April 16Th, the Government Of
    April 19th Message from the Governor (Excerpt) To all citizens of Shimane Prefecture, On April 16th, the Government of Japan announced new “priority measures to prevent the spread of infections” for Saitama Prefecture, Chiba Prefecture, Kanagawa Prefecture, and Aichi Prefecture. Because the basic policy for dealing with COVID-19 has changed, I request the following to all citizens. These requests shall be applicable from April 20th until May 5th 2021. For Saitama Prefecture, Chiba Prefecture, Tokyo Metropolitan Area, Kanagawa Prefecture, and Aichi Prefecture, these requests shall be applicable from until May 11th 2021. (Regarding Travel Between Prefectures) 1. Please refrain from travel between Shimane Prefecture and “areas under priority measures to prevent the spread of infections”—namely, Miyagi Prefecture, Saitama Prefecture, Chiba Prefecture, Tokyo Metropolitan Area, Kanagawa Prefecture, Aichi Prefecture, Kyoto Prefecture, Osaka Prefecture, Hyogo Prefecture, and Okinawa Prefecture. In addition, there are areas where the prefectural governments are requesting that citizens refrain from non-essential, non-urgent outdoor travel—namely, Sapporo City (Hokkaido), Yamagata City (Yamagata), Kagawa Prefecture, Matsuyama City (Ehime), etc. Please carefully reconsider travel plans to these areas. In particular, please refrain from travel if you have symptoms such as a fever. Except for when you have symptoms such as a fever, you do not need to refrain from travel if the purpose includes work, job relocation, job hunting, funerals, nursing care, etc. (Thorough Practice of Basic Infection Prevention Measures) 2. To prevent infections at your workplace or household, please be careful of the “5 situations” where there is a high risk of infection: social gatherings involving alcohol consumption, dining out with large numbers of people or for a long period of time, having conversations without wearing a mask, living with others in a confined space, and switching locations.

  • 1 Historical Development of a Local Government's Environmental Policy and Initiatives Towards a Recycling-Oriented Society
    ECOASIA Keynote Speech Historical Development of a Local Government’s Environmental Policy and Initiatives towards a Recycling-oriented Society Shigefumi Matsuzawa Prefectural Governor of Kanagawa Opening Mr. Chairman, Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen, My name is Shigefumi Matsuzawa, Governor of Kanagawa Prefecture. On behalf of the 8.6 million residents of Kanagawa prefecture, I would like to extend a hearty welcome to you all. It is my greatest honour to be able to participate in ECO ASIA and was given a chance to speak to you at this prestigious occasion. The theme of the first portion of discussion is “Work towards the Realization of a Sustainable Society,” and I have been asked to present Kanagawa Prefecture’s case. The mayors of Yokosuka and Hayama, Mr. Sawada and Mr. Moriya each, have presentations to make after myself. To make the whole story more understandable for those from outside Japan, before launching into the main body of my presentation, I would like to provide you with a short history of how the local governments in Japan dealt with the environmental issues in the latter half of the 20th century, referring to the experience of Kanagawa Prefecture as an example. A Profile of Kanagawa Prefecture Kanagawa Prefecture adjoins the southern edge of the metropolis of Tokyo, capital of Japan. The prefecture occupies 2,415.47 square meters, which is 0.64% of the nation's landmass. We rank as the 43rd largest, or 5th smallest, of all the prefectures. Although small in area, Kanagawa Prefecture is full of energy. Its strong manufacturing core has made it a leading force in the Japanese economy.

The first began in 1192, when the first military government was established in Kamakura. This made Kanagawa the centre of the Japanese political scene.
