ASIA-PACIFIC OBSERVATORY

Plants in Tzaishan

Project description
With an area of more than 1100 hectares, Tzaishan has more than 700 species of flora and fauna. However, this rich and delicate ecosystem is threatened by overexploitation, improper development, and the swarming of tourists and hikers. This project seeks to arouse the ecological consciousness in order to preserve regional bio-diversity through photographing and documenting the plants and animals in Tzaishan.

柴山面積一千一百百多公頃,植物生態豐富,約有七百多種。因不當開發,遊客湧入,造成生態破壞,本計劃透過攝影物種記錄,希望喚醒環境保育意識,保存在地多樣植物生態。
