Tsurui is a breeding ground for the red-crowned crane, deemed one of the 100 Soundscapes of Japan.^[1]

The village was formed in 1937.

Tsurui's mascots are Tsurubo (つるぼー) and Hinabo (ひなぼー). They are red-crowned crane brothers. They are shaped like bogs of the Kushiro-shitsugen National Park.^[4][5]

• Tsurubo is the oldest of the siblings. His tail resembles a cosmos flower.
• Hinabo is the youngest of the siblings.
