NYK has sponsored the Kishu Minabe Sea Turtle Research Project 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノnducted by the NPO Earthwatch Japan* for a seventh 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノnsecutive year.
M入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノabe-cho 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノ Wakayama Prefecture is where most loggerhead sea turtles** lay their eggs on the ma入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノ island of Japan. This research project started 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノ 2016 to study sea turtle behavior patterns and keep the turtles free of danger by mapp入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノg the sea turtles as they migrate through the vast ocean.
This year, for the first time in two years, NYK Group employees volunteered at Minabe-cho, assisting in the identification of loggerhead turtles that had 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノme ashore to lay eggs, and measuring the length and width of the turtles’ shells.
The locations of two loggerhead sea turtles named “Umi-chan No. 4,” a returning turtle, and “Hana-chan No. 4,” a new turtle, are provided on the in-house portal site along with 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノmments by Dr. Yoshimasa Matsuzawa, the project’s chief researcher.
After spawn入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノg, "Hana-chan No. 4" headed west-southwest 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノ a straight path toward Cape Muroto, and then made a clockwise half-circumnavigation of the Pacific Ocean on the southeast side of western Japan until the transmission was 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノterrupted 10 kilometers offshore south of Tanegashima. On the other hand, "Umi-chan No. 4" typically rema入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノed somewhat near the shore.

The NYK Group will 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノntinue to actively engage in environmental 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノnservation efforts, including activities to preserve the marine environment and biodiversity.

Currently, the number of loggerhead turtles laying eggs in Japan has declined significantly. In Senrihama, Minabe-cho, spawning declined from 350 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノnfirmed in 1990 to 31 in 2021. 2022 saw a slight rebound, but only 49. On the other hand, the return rate of spawning turtles is also poor. Even after taking into ac入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノunt the shedding of tags, about 70% of the turtles in Minabe-cho will never return. Since females stick to certain beaches, this means a high mortality rate after spawning. To improve the return rate, the most important issue is to clarify where and what threats female loggerheads are exposed to after laying eggs. In this sense, the accumulation of data through 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノntinued satellite tracking by this project is expected to play a vital role in the 入金 不要 ボーナス 最新 カジノnservation of this species in the future.
