This paper analyzes residents' attitude toward the environmental conservation using CVM and CHAID, and studies what conditions are needed for the environmental activities to be supported by the residents. The site studied is Lake Man, Okinawa, which is on the list of the Ramsar Convention. We studied the effect of the endangered species on residents' WTP for conserving the environment by using CVM. We compared WTPs for two scenarios using the bivariate probit model. One scenario holds up the plan for preserving black-faced spoonbill, which is listed as the endangered species, and the other is more general one. As the result, we found that the WTPs for two scenarios are highly correlated, and there is no significant difference in the medians of WTPs for two senarios. To preserve endangered species means to preserve the environment where they inhabit, and they are sometime used as a symbol of more general environmental conservation. But black-faced spoonbill at Lake Man is not so famous or charismatic that it affects the residents' WTP for the environmental conservation. We also studied the residents' attitude (willingness to participate) toward the volunteer activity of environmental conservation using CHAID. Those who have a experience of visiting the Lake Man Water Bird and Wetland Center are tend to have higher willingness to participate in volunteer activities and higher WTP for environmental conservation at Lake Man. In this point, the wetland center has been successful in enlightening the citizens about the environments of the Lake.
