Thanks to Habu Snake! August second is Habu Snake's Day.
Around 8 (c) and 2 (b), Habu Snake Day is an anniversary unique to Okinawa.
In 2017, it was officially recognized as "Habu Snake Day on August 2" by the Japan Anniversary Association.
It's written as an anniversary in the Okinawa limited notebook.
Habu Snake lives in Okinawa Prefecture and is feared as a poisonous snake.
But it's an indispensable part of Okinawa World!
Okinawa World's "Habu Museum Park."
It opened in 1979 with the aim of helping many people know about Habu Snake and helping to reduce damage to Habu Snake.
For more than 40 years, we have exhibited materials and living organisms related to the Habu Snake.
Popular attraction "Habu Snake Show".
There are three times a day in the park. We are entertaining many customers while introducing the ecology of Habu Snake.
Also, Nanto Brewery, Okinawa World manufactures and sells Habu Snake Liquor.
Habu Snake Liquor, which is finished with special treatment, has a reputation for being very easy to drink.
As you can see, August 2 is a special day for Habu Snake's Day in Okinawa World, where we usually benefit from Habu Snake.
And on this day, we also hold a "Habu Snake memorial service" to thank Habu Snake.
Thank you very much, Mr. Habu Snake.
Habu Snake is scary, but special in part of nature.
August 2 is Habu Snake's Day. I hope that as many people as possible will be able to think about the understanding of Habu Snake and the coexistence of Habu Snake and humans.
