    Inorder to minimize the impact of cilivilsation and nature, Toyama dam in western Japan built a suspension bridge just for the wild monkey around the area. The bridge is expected to be use by monkeys habitat around the dam, and is also believe to be the first bridge in the world built specialised for monkey

    Can it be used outside of the bushfire season to quell civil unrest or settle disputes between neighbors? Might be good in Macquarie Fields. Clever buggers, the Japanese.

    Do they have many bushfires in Japan?  Wonder if that automatic water spray would work here?

    I like the idea of a bridge just for the monkeys.  Smile

    I think it's easier to start fire in Japan than Australia, given the housing structure in Japan made out of more timber structure than Aussie housing. Also the "raise-floor" (tatami) made out of dry leaf, can burn very quickly. Finally Japan has bigger smoking population than Australia, Shinkansen banned smoking 100% only very recently, a little bit of ciggy can start fire easily...

    The sprinkler is a great idea to combat Bush Fires..

    Unless it is connected to the ocean... good luck finding water for it!

    Correct me if i am wrong, as it is only what a mate at work told me, as we both love the Lancer Evolution series.

    But, is it true, that the Japanese people only invented an automatic version of the Evo's, because they arte lazy??

    I dont know what to believe. Can someone elighten to me on what to believe??

    Cheers,   Very HappyVery Happy

    Chiba Zoo, east of Tokyo has a red panda that "stands up" most of the time during the day, the panda has been doing this for a while , after TV news reported, attracted many visitors to the zoo, helped zoo to set record number visitor...

    It is unknow why the panda stood up, or how it learnt to stood up.

    This has been done extensively in rebuilt houses in Cockatoo after the Ash Wednesday bushfires, as well as in other areas in the Dandenongs.  If a petrol powered pump is rigged up to it, the sprinklers will still work when water pressure drops and/or power cuts out
