This Coalition has been writing to the Japanese Administration concerning the Fukushima Left Behind Pets.  It has pointed out that their rights according to Japan’s Animal Welfare Act are not being honored and it continues to be a Violation of the Japanese Animal Welfare Act.
The Coalition of FB Sites for the Rescue of Animals in the Fukushima No-Go Zone, would like for this Government to address and answer the issue below.
1. The Japanese government is launching a large-scale cleanup of the fields, forests, and villages contaminated by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
All the animals need to be decontaminated, quarantined, and cared for when the area that they live is being decontaminated. Plans should be in place since you have begun decontamination work.  Or if a decontamination shelter has not been provided for them, please let us know where the animals are being housed, how many animals are there, what kind of animals, and the care they are receiving.  Is there a website for us to go and see them?
We ask for this information since we are unable to find it posted on any of the Japanese National, Prefecture, or local Government sites.
Thank you in advance for the information that you will be providing to the International community that continues to care and follow the remaining Fukushima Left Behind Animals.

When life gives you nuclear lemons, make nuclear lemonade.

The Fukushima Nuclear Disaster was unfortunate, but there is nothing like the scientific community to help us see the “bright side” of it. “When life gives you nuclear lemons, make nuclear lemonade”.

Stanford scientist uses Fukushima radiation to reveal swimming secrets of Pacific bluefin tuna

Trace radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster is showing up in Pacific bluefin tuna. By measuring that radiation, scientists are gaining valuable insight about the fish’s early migratory habits.

Fukushima endangered animals, no chance against the great Fukushima Decontamination machine

April 19, 2013

“Kiyomi Yokota, a naturalist and secretary of the Fukushima Nature Conservation Association, said that standing up for wildlife in the current situation would be difficult. “If people want to go home, I don’t think I could tell them, ‘No, stop the decontamination, save the fish,’” he said. Human health, in other words, trumps habitat.”
“Some species on the prefecture’s Red List of endangered or threatened species — including a grassland butterfly and the Japanese peregrine falcon, both listed as “vulnerable” — are found there and could be impacted if projects like these are implemented on a large scale.”

“Officials involved with the cleanup are well aware of the drawbacks to these approaches: huge amounts of radioactive waste that no one wants to store long term; immense investments of money, labor, and time; damage to wildlife habitat and soil fertility; increased erosion on scraped-bare ‘You take away all the soil and the ecosystem is destroyed,’ says one scientist. hillsides; and intrusion by people and machinery into every area scheduled for remediation.”

Nuclear Industry and the “unspoken” cost of its “safe cheap energy”. And, as is apparent with the whole Fukushima Nuclear disaster, no concern about the Fukushima animals, wild or domestic, shown by anyone involved. The animals that live there don’t pay taxes, the people that they would like to have move back, well, they do. And, as the Government of Japan has shown by their financing of radiation studies; the animals in the Fukushima contaminated areas, they are just a way for them to be able to measure “external and internal” radiation exposure.
