Imagine a place where one specific fish is part of one of the most ancient cultures of our planet. Here, several generations have worked day in and day out for something special and unique. Here is also the country where people and nature live in harmony. Over a hundred years breeders have developed a unique way to turn a certain fish species into a true work of art.
October, Japan.
It is harvest season. For most koi breeders this is the moment they have been looking forward to for an entire season.
For several months these fish have been delivered to mother nature high in the mountains.
Despite the daily checks by the breeder, it is not without risk. There is a lot at stake, not just this year's harvest, but also the many years of energy put into the care of these Nishikigoi.
Birds, bears, risk of disease and mother nature, all risks that the breeder must take into account.
Fortunately, breeders such as Tsuyoshi Kawakami have gained generations of experience, allowing them to develop their koi every year full of confidence.
I have been invited to one of the harvests of the Torazo family. In addition to Tsuyoshi Kawakami, his daughter Yuki and her husband Homare are helping to harvest these precious Koi fish.

This is almost a commercial for serious koi enthusiasts but wow, I've never seen so many beautiful koi! I grew up in Hawaii and in the Ala Moana shopping center they had koi ponds, and when I was little, the koi were small, and as I grew, they grew. There were ones I got to know individually, and I liked to think they got to know me. Also, one time my mother and I sat on some grass by a pond that had koi in it (not Ala Moana center, another place) and my mom had her foot kind of close to the water, and a koi came up and tried to swallow her toe! It was so funny! Koi are so beautiful and adorable!

I worked in a shopping center in Florida. There was a koi pond in front of our store. I would come to work early in the morning so I could spend time watching them. They were so sweet. They would come to the surface and nibble on the food.

@reginaldgarcia522 3 года назад

I love seeing koi fishes whenever I get into the fish store , but this one ☝️ really delighted me even watching for almost an hour . It gives you enough perspective on what can you have in mind while watching this . Amazing I could say , never had seen as big as this one ,never even thought that they can grow bigger . Thanks for this very informative documentary 😉

@SquidandCatAdventures Год назад

For some reason, I find it very satisfying seeing people lift up the fish gently from underneath with the koi not struggling too much. Maybe because so many other images of people holding/catching fish are much rougher and more chaotic (fishing for consumption, for example). I love how people get attached to these fish. We had one year in a Chinese public garden where a river otter got in and took many of these very old and specifically beloved fish.
