The Ramsar Convention (Convention on Wetlands of International Importance especially as Waterfowl Habitat) is an international treaty for the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands.[1] Adopted in 1971, it entered into force in 1975 and as of December 2015 has 169 Contracting Parties.[1] Japan was the twenty-fourth party to accede, on 17 October 1980.[2] Kushiro-shitsugen was the first of Japan's fifty Ramsar Sites as of the twelfth Conference of the Contracting Parties (2015).[3]
