Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Population size of the Oriental White Stork (OWS: Ciconia boyciana) that was reintroduced in Tajima district, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan increased to 80 in 2015. Our study clarified its basic social systems (pair- territory, existence of satellite birds helping territory-defence, etc.) and carrying capacity of Tajima district (50 birds). On the other hand, we conducted monitoring of aquatic prey animals and confirmed their increase with the practice of engineering works connecting the water-flow between rivers, ditches and paddy fields. Floaters of OWS visit different places all over Japan now, and a new pair laid eggs in Tokushima Prefecture, Shikoku Island in 2016. With the repetition of meetings with local people we could stop artificial feeding and nest-towers could be moved to more preferable sites. Our analysis of nuclear DNA helped management of OWS families. Thus we established the method of “adaptive management” by combining ecological, genetic and social sciences.
