    Training facilities があった

    Original Text

    There is a corner of Wakkanai Park where 々 monuments are gathered, but it is one of the monuments there. A dog sledding squad was formed to carry goods locally during the observation of the Antarctic in Japan, but it is the place where the training center was located. There is also a memorial monument nearby. I have an honest impression that I feel sorry for being trained harshly for humans.

    A small monument near the Ice and Snow Gate in Wakkanai Park

    Original Text

    A small monument about 100 meters on the back side when standing near the ice and snow gate in Wakkanai Park, exactly in front of the ice and snow gate. There is a memorial monument of Sakhalin dog (pyramid) and an azimuth board showing the direction and distance of each city in the world.

    "Antarctic Measurement of the Taidog Monument" と "Taidog Support Tower" の 2つの Monument

    Original Text

    It was a monument to commemorate that Wakkanai Park was a dog sled training for Antarctic observation. A statue of a Sakhalin dog with a brave impression was installed, and the explanation board installed adjacently made me understand the process well. In addition, a memorial tower with the head of the Sakhalin dog as a panel stood nearby.

    Original Text

    A monument built in Wakkanai Park. The Sakhalin dog who participated in the 1st Antarctic Observatory was trained here in 1956 and played an active role in Antarctica. The memorial tower was built to memorialize the Sakhalin dog who was left behind due to bad weather. Taro and Giro who have returned are taken up many times, but don't forget that 13 dogs are sacrificed behind them.

    I think of the Antarctic story.

    Original Text

    It seems that it was the training ground for that famous Antarctic observation Sakhalin dog, and there was a Sakhalin dog object and a triangular memorial tower. The dogs who had to spend a year in the cold Antarctic, where they were trained hard and had no food, remembered tears in the movie "Antarctic Story".
