■ Comments from the planning staff Aimi Hirai, in charge of the special exhibition at Sunshine Aquarium
When planning a special exhibition, I was surprised at the depth of the food when I thought about "food", which is usually too common to be aware of. It is an exhibition where you can enjoy the wonderfulness and fun of living things through this "food" that is familiar to everyone, so please come visit us!

・ Introduction of exhibition contents and an example of exhibited creatures

Chain of Life-A Surprising Episode of Food
Most of the creatures, including humans, live by receiving someone's life. Through various exhibitions, including the food chain of eating and eating relationships, I want you to know the gratitude and splendor of living things again. Create an opportunity to think about the familiar "food" that you eat as a matter of course.

● "The identity of what you usually eat"
Do you ever know what foods you usually eat and what they are made of?
Who is the parent of the roe that you usually eat? Why are fish fillets red and white? You can learn from the creatures such as the original appearance of unraveling and the back side of food.
