It can only be Japan: The train knows how to fake dogs and deer to prevent accidents
The Japanese are famous for their sophistication and creativity, which is one of the proofs that this thesis is absolutely correct.
All trains in the world seem to care only about their sole duty to transport goods and passengers from point A to point B.
But in Japan, there are special trains with extremely strange characteristics - barking like dogs and chirping like deer.
It sounds weird but after listening to this story, make sure you say that Japanese people are so subtle, thoughtful and creative!
Trains in Japan know how to bark like dogs and call like deer.
It is well known that the fact that animals, especially deer in Japan, suddenly run across railways can cause serious accidents.
According to officials, the train crashing into deer is a big problem in Japan. Not only does it cause delays, but it also makes the deer seriously injured, to death. In fact, in 2016, 613 train cases were temporarily suspended or delayed due to deer.
Therefore, the Railway Technical Research Institute (RTRI) in Japan has decided to equip trains that travel on the area where many of the deer live, barking of barking dogs and the snort of the deer.
Because the deer was frightened and would run away when the dog barked, the researchers tested the idea of sounding the sniff of deer for 3 seconds, then the dog barking for 20 seconds on the train that came in the morning early, late at night. This is the time when deer run through the tracks the most.
As a result, when the sound came out, the number of times that the crew members saw deer around the tracks was 7.5 times / 100km, down by 45%.
The reason that deer keep coming close to railroad tracks is because they lick rails.
The reason that deer keep coming close to railroad tracks is because they lick rails - as a way to supplement iron in their diets.
In the past, many methods have been introduced such as placing obstacles, lion . to prevent deer from getting close to the railway but not effective.
With this new device, it seems that everything looks better. A member of RTRI shared that, if the device is effective, they hope to complete the operation system in the mountains, where the railway company wants to expand so it can not harm the living creatures there.
