The list of protected animal species in the ROC contains more than 1900 different species and is 33 pages long. But if you take a closer look, you will find that domestic species account for less than one-tenth of the list, scattered as they are among the lemurs, seals, kangaroos, pandas and other internationally protected species.
翻開國內保育類野生動物名錄，洋洋灑灑一千九百多種，名單長達三十三頁，但若仔細計數，實際上本土物種佔不到十分之一，名字淹沒在狐猴、海豹、袋熊、貓熊等國際保育物種裡。
