Thus the animals which now roam in Taiwan's wild places, from large beasts like the Formosan black bear and Formosan sambar to small creatures such as the beetles and moths we can barely tell apart with the naked eye in parks and gardens, all have long pedigrees reaching back thousands or tens of thousands of years.
因此台灣原野裡奔跑大如黑熊、水鹿，小至公園中肉眼難辨的甲蟲、飛蛾，都有著淵遠流長的上千、萬年族譜。
