The moat around Sumpu Park in Shizuoka is filled with these wolves!
While koi fish are said to symbolize determination and strength to the Japanese, the Sumpu scene is less than inspirational: cloudy water, koi swarming to onlookers, hoping for bread crumbs (far from coy).
Yet they're friendlier than the Sumpu swans, I'll give them that. And these aren't the wimpy, dead-within-a-week goldfish that are won as carnival-game prizes...apparently koi can live for up to two centuries.
