The Environment Ministry has decided to exclude a freshwater salmon species known as "kunimasu" from the red list of extinct species and designate it as a species extinct in the wild, or a species that continues living in places other than its indigenous habitat, sources close to the issue said Saturday.
The kunimasu had earlier been seen only in Lake Tazawa in Akita Prefecture, northeastern Japan, and was thought to have gone extinct after an inflow of acidic water into the lake starting around 1940.
