Our stage this time is Lake Furen which is connected to the Sea of Okhotsk in eastern Hokkaido Prefecture. It is a brackish lake with a circumference of 65km. The program host canoes down the river that flows into the lake, and enjoys watching white-tailed eagles and other birds. In the marshland facing the sea, he also observes sika deer at close range. Later, we show you some footage of red-crowned cranes raising their young by the lake where tide ebbs and flows, as well as red fox feeding on fish left on the tidal flats.

Shimukappu is located almost in the center of Hokkaido Prefecture. It is an area that gets severely cold in winter, where the snow-covered deep forest stretches. The program host explores the forest on a fat bike, which can be ridden easily through snowy terrain. He enjoys the spectacular scenery and the fluffy fresh snow as if he were a little child again. Later, we also show you the life of Siberian flying squirrels, which congregate in large groups only during winter by building a nest inside the hollow of a tree trunk.

Our stage this time is Lake Akan in the eastern part of Hokkaido Prefecture. It is a caldera lake created as a result of ancient volcanic activity. In the dead of winter, the lake is completely frozen over. Our program host walks around the surrounding forests inhabited by a variety of wild fauna, as well as over the frozen lake to experience the flourishing forest and the energy of the volcano, which is still active today. Later, we show you rare footage of the lakeside facility of the Ainu, the indigenous people of Hokkaido, as well as some mysterious phenomena created in the lake by the intense winter conditions.
