Situation critical: Appeal to Japan to save Little Tern Known as
migratory birds travelling between
Australia and Japan, Little Terns(Sterna albifrons) are facing
extinction. Every spring, 300 to 500
birds migrate to one of Japan's largest surviving colonies located in
Atsugi, Kanagawa. 
colony is now seriously threatened by roadworks planned for the area.
For details:
http://www.hiroshi-takada.com/savelt.shtml We may protect the Little
Tern colony, please write your
views and mail them to the following addresses mentioned in the above
page. It is the only form of
bargaining power we have left. Your letter may help save the Little
Terns.
Thank you.
