Ikimono Kokuho

Serows, rock ptarmigans, Amami rabbits, and Akita dogs. Ikimono Kokuho is a field guide that lets you explore, with photos and maps, the animals that Japan's national and prefectural governments protect as Natural Monuments. It covers around 400 national and prefectural designations, which you can filter by group, rank, and prefecture or browse from a map of Japan. Signed-in users can keep a private "Wildlife Journal" of the animals they have met and share observation photos. A Premium plan (¥300/month, tax included, with a 7-day free trial for first-time members) removes the limit on how many animals you can record. Available in Japanese, English, and Chinese.
