Wild Hokkaido!

Season 2 Episode 12: The Beech Forest of Oshima Peninsula

Our stage this time is Japan’s northernmost primeval forest containing Seibold’s beech trees, which is in the Oshima Peninsula of southern Hokkaido. Our program host Charlotte Kate Fox goes on a snowshoe trek with a guide in the Siebold’s beech forest, one of Japan’s national natural monuments. She mimics the bird song using an instrument called “the Bird Call”, to attract wild birds. And later, let’s observe the local wildlife of the Oshima Peninsula in the bountiful season of autumn.
