When we were children, there were many animals by our sides, but because we lacked relevant nature textbooks, we couldn't understand them more deeply; the first nature magazine about Taiwan only appeared in 1971. Today research about local animals is increasingly constantly, and related books and periodicals have appeared one after another. But there is already very little "wildlife" in our lives.
當我們兒時，身邊有許多動物，卻因為相關的自然書籍缺乏，無法更深入瞭解它們，直到民國六十年代才出現了第一本和本土有關的自然雜誌；如今本土生物的研究不斷增加，相關的書籍、雜誌也陸續出現，但生活周遭已沒有多少野生動物了。
