Abstract
Three zoos in eastern Japan were members of the Japanese Association of Zoological Gardens and Aquariums in 1943: Ueno Zoo and Inokashira Park Zoo in the Kantō region, eastern Japan, and Sendai City Zoo in the Tōhoku region, northeastern Japan (see map). With the rationing of food and essential commodities, zoos had to deal with the shortages of animal feed and fuel for heating animal facilities as well as a shortage of manpower due to the conscription. Nevertheless, that was not all zoos had to cope with during the war. What they had dreaded most was yet to come.
