It was suddenly appeared on the newsflash that 69-year-old elephant Hanako died.
Hanako in the Inogashira zoo got 69 years old this year but she canceled her birthday ceremony because of her bad healthy condition. I'm sure she was being taken a good care by the good hands.
The oldest elephant died
Speaking of "Hanako" of the elephant, I remember the "Hanako" of kanji-characters in Ueno Zoo, but, I knew for first time there was "Hanako" of kana-characters in Inoatama Zoo.
返信削除And I knew also in this blog Hanako of Inoatama Zoo have been spending a very checkered life.
In addition, I was impressed with a story of heartwarming contact between Hanako and the member of breeding.
I pray for the souls of Hanako.
Hanako's life after the war contributed a lot for the many Japanese and walked along the history of Showa and Heisei era....it's a kind of great relay of life.
削除Before, I have seen the video of Hanako on NHK's archive program.
返信削除But I had forgotten that of Hanako.
Hanako who couldn't live together with family and companions.
I hope that Hanako who gave joy to children was happy.
Mr.Odekyu talked about how to study English in today's class.
Although it seems difficult, I seem to be able to watch a dictionary every day.
They say "What's happy to Hanako?" We still don't find an answer what should have done to her. But I'm very impressed of those who took good care of Hanako in the zoo.
削除I feel sad. But she died a natural death at the age of 69.
返信削除Everyone was encouraged by her.
I'd like to praise her life.
I think she is Miss Elephant in our memory.
