(CNA, Nantou County, 18th, Reporter Hsiao Po-yang) The Nantou Branch of the Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency stated that in an ecosystem, snakes are a key indicator for controlling populations and maintaining balance. Its Aowanda Nature Education Center will hold a workshop, guided by a professional team, to help the public understand the importance of ecological balance, starting from getting to know snakes.
To guide the public in establishing correct wildlife conservation concepts, the Aowanda Nature Education Center of the Nantou Branch of the Ministry of Agriculture's Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency will hold a snake workshop called 'The Winding Way' from June 13 to 14. It invites a professional team to guide participants. Through practical scientific investigation and field observations, the workshop will lead participants into the Aowanda National Forest Recreation Area to unveil the mysterious veil of snakes.
The Nantou Branch issued a press release today stating that snakes are often misunderstood by the public as dangerous creatures, but they are a key indicator in the ecosystem for controlling populations and maintaining balance. To understand the behavioral patterns of snakes, observation from a scientific perspective is necessary. The workshop combines professional investigation with in-depth field experience, conducting standardized data recording while ensuring the safety of both humans and snakes.
The Nantou Branch stated that participants will start with the physiological structure and evolutionary aesthetics of snakes, learn to use scientific tools for field investigation, and actually check traps in the Aowanda park. They will also venture into the forest at night to directly witness the most authentic nocturnal behavior of snakes and observe their natural habitat. It is hoped that through first-hand investigation and observation, past misconceptions can be transformed, and a rational conservation mindset can be established. (Editor: Chen Jen-hua) 1150518
