Japan is launching a new high-speed bullet train, or shinkansen, extension on Saturday that will make an under-the-radar prefecture far more accessible to travelers. The new train will pass through the city of Fukui, the town of Awara and other places guidebooks rarely mention, before reaching the port town of Tsuruga, adding some 78 miles to the Hokuriku Shinkansen's existing Tokyo-to-Kanazawa service.

☆ 4 people were wounded in a spree of rare dolphin attacks off a beach in Japan, reports say
  + stars: | 2023-07-17 | by ( Tom Porter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
Dolphins wounded four people in attacks off the Japanese coast this weekend, according to local media. Experts say dolphins can become aggressive, but attacks are rare. Local authorities say they have so far recorded six dolphin attacks on humans this year, Asahi Shinbun reported. And last year authorities installed ultrasonic transmitters in Koshino Beach, Fukui Prefecture, after a series of dolphin attacks, according to reports. It's unclear from the reports what kind of dolphin is believed to be responsible for these recent attacks.
