守护天堂
翁庞野生动物保护区是泰国最大的保护区,也是亚洲重要的生物多样性庇护所及联合国教科文组织的世界遗产。其高海拔的雨林孕育了多样化的野生动物及鸟类。区内密集的河流网络及泰国最大的瀑布,在当地为期六个月的乾季,对维持生态系统的健康至关重要,亦为各种动物提供了全年所需的食物。
然而,盗猎、人类开发、农业扩张及棕榈树种植园的设立对保护区构成重大威胁。透过巡逻人员巡查遏制盗猎和收集保育数据、科学家研究人类活动的影响从而制定出有效的保护策略,以及新一代关注生态的泰国人加入保育行列,正为保护这片自然宝藏带来希望。

Umphang Sanctuary, Thailand’s largest protected area, is a vital biodiversity refuge in Asia and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its high-altitude rainforest supports a diverse array of wildlife and bird species. The sanctuary's dense river network and its largest waterfalls play a crucial role in sustaining this ecosystem during the six-month dry season, providing year-round food for various animal populations.
However, the sanctuary faces significant threats from poaching, human development, agricultural expansion, and the establishment of oil palm plantations. Rangers patrol the area to combat poaching and collect conservation data, while scientists study human impacts to develop effective protection strategies. A new generation of environmentally conscious Thais also offers hope for the preservation of this natural treasure.
