【 カピバラの意外性で広がる新しい世界 】

松島波輝(まつしま なみき)
カピバラ探検家

静岡県浜松市出身。大学生時代にカピバラと運命的な出会いを果たし、その魅力に惹かれ探求の旅を始める。日本全国の動物園、水族館を巡り、その活動の範囲は南米を中心に世界各国へと移り変わる。国内外の飼育施設に資料提供や写真展を通じてカピバラの魅力を発信し、お互いの国の技術と知恵を出し合い人間にとってもカピバラにとっても恩恵が得られる最善を目指す国際交流を行っている。 Born in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Namiki Matsushima had a life-changing encounter with a capybara during his university years. This sparked a deep fascination, leading him on a journey of exploration centered around these captivating creatures. He has since traveled to zoos and aquariums throughout Japan, and his passion has taken him to countries worldwide, with a particular focus on South America. Through providing educational materials and hosting photo exhibitions both domestically and internationally, he shares the charm of capybaras. His work also extends to promoting international exchanges, striving to create harmonious outcomes for both humans and capybaras by combining technologies and wisdom from different nations.
