Famous dog statues to leave Tokyo Tower

TOKYO, Japan - Photo taken at Tokyo Tower in Tokyo's Minato Ward on May 15, 2013, shows the statues of Sakhalin huskies which accompanied the first Japanese Antarctic expedition team in the late 1950s, including those of Taro and Jiro, the only dogs to miraculously survive after being left behind when the expedition team returned home. Work began the same day to remove the 15 statues, as part of an afforestation project within the Tokyo Tower grounds.
