Precious animals such as Sapheopipo noguchii or Rallus okinawa inhabit the northern part of mainland of Okinawa. At the place, forestry production is done, and therefore relation with forestry and conservation of nature becomes a big problem currently from the past. In October, 1993,I wrote a paper with a titleForest development and nature conservation problem in northern part of mainland of Okinawain a text for University of the Ryukyus' television broadcast open lecture. In this paper I picked it up from a point of view of the history about the forest felling and its relation with wildlife, and I referred more about the symbiosis of forestry and conservation of nature. Mr. Ito, an ecologist, wrote critiques in a book titledForest of Okinawa Yambaru(October, 1995) about my paper. In the content of Mr. Ito's critique, it was found that there are extremely partial things which ignored my major point at issue, and also there are erroneous determination of facts about the history of forestry of Okinawa Yambaru and the dogmatism therein. I argue against Mr. Ito's thought from the point of view of the quantity of forest felling, felling area, felling place of Okinawa Yambaru, the meaning of mosaic vegetation environment, and the landscape ecology and zoning of Yambaru.
