Let's make specimens from the park's insects!

Catch your own insects and make your own specimens!
Join the park staff who love bugs to catch the insects in the park, research their names, observe them, and create specimens. In the morning, we will collect insects in the park and have lunch (each person brings their own bento). In the afternoon, we will research names, observe, and create specimens inside the visitor center. Pre-registration is required, with a capacity of 20 people on a first-come, first-served basis. Applications can be made by phone from June 5. Target audience is elementary and junior high school students (children in the second grade or below must be accompanied by a guardian. Participation fee is free).
