Nippon Broadcasting "Michiko Haneda is a good idea"

Sunamel is a small whale companion. He also belongs to the "Nez Milka family", so he is also a dolphin friend. In the case of Sunamel seen along the coast of Japan, the body length is up to 2m and average is 160cm to 170cm. The weight is 40kg to 70kg, so it is not much different from human adults. Although it is a dolphin friend, unlike other dolphins, it has a round head, and there is no beak or a lip. Instead, there is a big breast fin. Snamel has a very delicate and sensitive personality for a dolphin with a bright and human image. Snamele inhabits the East China Sea from the Indian Ocean. In Japan, Sendai Bay, Toyama Bay, Ise Bay, Seto Inland Sea, etc. The Seto Inland Sea Sunamel is also important as a symbol of the environment. Snamel is thought to be "at the top of the food chain of the Seto Inland Sea", and is said to be "easy to keep pollutants in the sea into the body." Therefore, it seems to be considered as a symbol of "a lot of snails inhabit = the resurrection of the beautiful sea".
