Who Lives There & Natural Vegetation:


Who lives there?
-Asiatic Black Bears have been sited on Mt. Fuji, but scientists are not sure if animals live on Mount Fuji.
 
37 living species are recorded, including the rare Japanese serow. Asiatic black bears are also seen on occasion. Japanese squirrels and foxes can be viewed from the mountain base to Shin-gogoume.
A single ecosystem is formed of living things, water, and soil through the interrelation of the small animals that live in the grass fields, forests, and near water and the birds and animals that prey on them. If one element is missing, the system collapses.
Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji's natural world is disappearing each year as uncaring people drive four-wheel drive vehicles and motorcycles in areas they are not supposed to be used in, destroying vegetation and rare flowering plants.
