Toba Aquarium - Dugong Encounter
  • Tip Rating:
  • This was my first encounter with a dugong.

    Apparently sailors has mistaken dugongs as mermaids. Having seen one swim so closely, it is possible to imagine so if one is drunk on high seas and being away from women for a long period of time.

    Anyway, dugong are still known to be found limited to Okinawa in Japan. Dugongs are found in coastal areas of the Indian and Pacific Oceans around Africa, Asia and Australasia.

    Well, good to meet one in Toba.

    Toba Aquarium - deadly neighborhood
  • Tip Rating:
  • What a surprising combination of putting loads of moray eels and scorpion fishes in a tank.

    Cannot imagine which is worse - a nasty bite from the eel or a venomous sting from the poisonous spines of the scorpion fish.

    You probably heard of the infamous expensive and can-be=deadly Japanese delicacy of the blowfish (fugu) sushi.

    Wonder whether moray eel and scorpion fish sushi will be next.
