The {{nihongo|'''Shiretoko Peninsula'''|知床半島|Shiretoko-hantō}}, is located on the easternmost portion of the [[Japan]]ese [[island]] of [[Hokkaidō]], protruding into the [[Sea of Okhotsk]]. It is separated from the [[Kunashir Island]] of [[Russia]] by the [[Nemuro Strait]]. The name Shiretoko is derived from the [[Ainu language]] word ''sir etok'', meaning "the end of the earth" or "the place where the earth protrudes". The towns of [[Rausu, Hokkaidō|Rausu]] and [[Shari, Hokkaidō|Shari]] cover the peninsula.
{{Nihongo|'''Shiretoko National Park'''|知床国立公園|Shiretoko Kokuritsu Kōen}} covers most of the [[Shiretoko Peninsula]] at the northeastern tip of the island of [[Hokkaidō]], [[Japan]].
The word "Shiretoko" is an [[Ainu language|Ainu]] word meaning [[List of Ainu terms#S|"end of the Earth"]].
 
On July 14, 2005, in a meeting held in the [[Republic of South Africa]], the Shiretoko Peninsula was declared a UNESCO [[World Heritage Site]], and on July 17 was officially registered as such. The reason is that in the [[Northern Hemisphere]], the peninsula is the southern most point where [[sea ice]] usually forms.
One of the most remote regions in all of Japan, much of the peninsula is only accessible on foot or by boat. The park is best known as the home of Japan's largest [[brown bear]] population and for offering views of the disputed [[Kunashiri Island]], claimed by [[Japan]]. The park has a hot springs [[waterfall]] called {{nihongo|[[Kamuiwakka Falls]]|カムイワッカの滝|Kamuiwakka-no-taki}}. ''[[Kamui]] wakka'' means "water of the gods" in [[Ainu language|Ainu]].

==Geography==
The [[forest]]s of the park are [[temperate]] and [[subalpine]] [[mixed forest]]s; the main [[tree]] [[species]] include Sakhalin fir (''[[Abies sachalinensis]]''), Erman's birch (''[[Betula ermanii]]'') and Mongolian oak (''[[Quercus mongolica]]''). Beyond the forest limit there are impenetrable Siberian Dwarf Pine (''[[Pinus pumila]]'') thickets.
From Shiretoko Cape at the tip of the peninsula, a series of volcanoes run down the peninsula, including [[Mount Shiretoko]], [[Mount Unabetsu]], and [[Mount Iō (Shiretoko)|Mount Iō]]. The volcanic zone has made several [[onsen]] possible, including Seseki Onsen and Iwaobetsu Onsen. The variety of onsen in the area make the peninsula a popular tourist destination.
 
==Flora and fauna==
In 2005, [[United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization|UNESCO]] designated the area a [[World Heritage Site]], advising to develop the property jointly with [[Kuril Islands]] of [[Russia]] as a transboundary "World Heritage Peace Park".
The Shiretoko Peninsula is home to many species of both [[conifer]]s and [[broadleaf]] trees, including the [[acorn]]-bearing {{nihongo|[[Quercus mongolica]]|Mizunara}}. [[Red Fox]]es, [[Amur brown bear]]s, and [[Sika Deer]] also inhabit the area. [[Sea eagle]]s flourish here, and [[pinniped|seal]]s can be often seen on the coast. Thirteen or fourteen species of [[cetaceans]] species have been recorded in the area. Especially for Orca, [[Killer Whale]]s, the waters surrounding the peninsula are regarded as one of the most significant habitat areas in the northwestern Pacific.{{Citation needed|date=September 2009}} There was a notable mass stranding of 12 animals in February 2005. Nine animals died.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://hokkaido.yomiuri.co.jp/shiretoko/shiretoko_article/20050208-1_article.htm|title= シャチ12頭、流氷で動けず 羅臼の海|date=8 Feb 2005|work=Yomiuri Online|language=Japanese|accessdate=2009-09-21}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://hokkaido.yomiuri.co.jp/shiretoko/shiretoko_article/20050208-2_article.htm|title=流氷で遭難、羅臼のシャチ 1頭、自力で沖へ 残る11頭は力尽きる?|date=8 Feb 2005|work=Yomiuri Online|language=Japanese|accessdate=2009-09-21}}</ref> Shiretoko Peninsula is one of the few places where groups of male [[Sperm Whale]]s and [[Baird's Beaked Whale]]s can be spotted from the shore. [[Minke Whale]]s, [[Pacific White-sided Dolphin]]s, [[Dall's Porpoise]]s and [[Harbour Porpoise]]s can also be seen.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.slw.jp/kujiranokai_webdeck.html|title=The Whale View Park: Observation Deck|last=Sato|first=Hal|work=The SeaLife Watch|language=self-published|accessdate=2009-09-21}}</ref>
 
==Conservation efforts==
==Features==
To protect the wild animals and pristine natural beauty of the Shiretoko Peninsula, in 1964 a great portion of the peninsula was designated [[Shiretoko National Park]]. Since then, the park has been subject to strict regulation as a nature preserve, and entering is prohibited.
