Abstract
I am engaged in long-term research in preparation for a book on how man communicates with animals and vice versa. Accordingly, there were a number of quite specific activities I wanted to observe, if in a preliminary way, during a trip to Japan. For instance, I was interested in learning how cormorants are trained in Gifu City to retrieve fish from the Nagara, a tributary of the Kiso River in southwest central Honshū.
