There is a place with the same name but it did not resemble the right one at all.  |

time for a clue? There is a place with the same name but it did not resemble the right one at all. true, in that very same country there are 2 islands with the same nickname (thanks to the "master") but we can see (in SV) very few "masters" in the 2nd one try the one with the name starting with an A  |

alchemist251, Walter_V_R, bridgeplayer, hhgygy, CuriousJM, willi1, Utapao, well done! Aoshima Island aka Cat Island, Japan, 33.7366864 132.4878286, SV linkwikipedia reads: " Felines have been reported by news outlets to outnumber humans by ratios between 6:1 and 10:1, but in recent years as elderly inhabitants of the island have passed away, it has skyrocketed to nearly 36:1.
In 1945, the island was a fishing village with a population of approximately 900. ... In 2019, Asahi Shimbun Globe reported that only 6 residents remained on the island.
The island attracts tourists who visit the cats and give them food.
In February 2018, it was reported by Ehime Shimbun that all cats on the island would be spayed or neutered in order to lower the feline population as a response to the declining human population. By October, 210 cats had been spayed and neutered, with another estimated 10 cats uncaptured that had been hidden by a resident who opposed the program. "  219 views |

Also have liked it when firstly have known about that place from an oGEC posting made by Diane ( diane9247 ) (; as if I remember well, it was posted by her.. (pretty sure) (: ... Really! Is not there a GEC layer mark? (I am far from a desktop GE at the moment.) |
