    (Aussie) Black Swans Give (Japanese) Koi Fish a Decent Feed

    Black swans are endemic to Australia and symbolic to the country, particularly Western Australia, where the avian beauty is almost synonymous for anything Sandgroper. 　黒鳥は、オーストラリア国有鳥であり、州の象徴である西オーストラリア州では特に称えられている。 Koi fish, meanwhile, play a similar role for Japan, immediately evoking an image of the Land of the Rising Sun. 　鯉は、言うまでもなく、超日本的であり、日本のシンボル一つと言っても過言ではないはずだ。 This clip could be called a cute view of Australia-Japan friendship. 　なので、本動画が日豪友情の表れとも言える。

    Reminiscing: The First Time Australia Mattered in Kangaeroo’s Japan

    Kangaeroo has lived in Japan since the late ’80s, just as the Showa Era (reign of Emperor Hirohito from 1926-1989) drew to a close. Japan back then had possibly an even stronger fascination with English than it does even today, especially as it was far less accessible in a slower, less connected world. But English and overseas meant America and Japan had an obsession for the United States. Occasionally, news would filter through from other powers, such as then recently reunited Germany, France, Italy, Britain and the crumbling Soviet Union and Russia. It was rare, pretty close to unheard of, really, for Australia to attract much attention in a Japan…

    Why Do Japanese Zoos Know So Much About Kangaroos?

    なぜ日本の動物園はカンガルーにこんなに詳しいのか？ Kangaroos are popular exhibits in Japanese zoos. But their success didn’t happen by accident. It grew from decades of cooperation with Australian wildlife experts, creating one of the world’s most successful international partnerships in animal care. 日本の動物園では、カンガルーは人気者です。しかし、その飼育技術は偶然生まれたものではありません。長年にわたるオーストラリアとの協力が、世界でも高い水準の飼育技術を育ててきました。 More Than an Exhibit 展示動物では終わらない Kangaroos first arrived in Japan as remarkable Australian animals. Keeping them healthy, however, proved far more challenging than displaying them. Japanese keepers needed to understand their diet, behaviour, reproduction and social structure. 展示動物では終わらない カンガルーは、オーストラリアを代表する珍しい動物として日本にやって来ました。 しかし、健康に飼育することは決して簡単ではありませんでした。 飼育員たちは、食性や行動、繁殖、生態について一から学ぶ必要がありました。 Australia Shared Its Knowledge オーストラリアから学んだ Australian zoos and wildlife specialists worked closely with Japanese institutions. Veterinarians, animal keepers and researchers exchanged information on nutrition, enclosure design, breeding and veterinary care. The…

    Sheer Nonsense? No, Shear Delight!

    Australia hasn’t really had much of an impact on Japanese culture over the years, but there is one case that inspires sheer delight….or perhaps that should be “shear?” For Japanese of a certain age, 調子をそろえて、クリック、クリック、クリック (Choshi wo soroete kurikku, kurikku, kurikku, is a highly familiar song picked up in an early season of Minna no Uta, a radio and TV program broadcast by NHK since 1961 to introduce new tunes to the Japanese public. The song is known in English as Click Go the Shears and Peggy Hayama, who sang the Japanese version of the song with lyrics written by Takashi Otowa, would retain a lifelong connection with Australia because…
