Steeple Jason Island : ウィキペディア英語版 | Steeple Jason Island
Steeple Jason Island is a small island west of the Grand Jason Island. It is a part of the Jason Islands in the Falkland Islands. Along with Grand Jason it is one of the "Islas los Salvajes" in Spanish (the Jasons being divided into two groups in that language). ==Population and geography== None of the Jason Islands has ever been properly inhabited. Steeple Jason was used for sheep grazing up until the 1980s. There are the remains of a disused shearing shed on the island. There is also the Steinhart Station, a field research station on the island, built in 2003 for monitoring wildlife. The island is surrounded by a low-lying land around the shore, which quickly rises into a steep peak, hence the island's name. The island was formerly owned by New York philanthropist Michael Steinhardt, who later donated them to the Bronx Zoo based Wildlife Conservation Society.
