碩士 / 國立中山大學 / 海洋事務研究所 / 99 / The critical endangered species has become one of the main concerns regarding the loss of biodiversity in the 21th century. It is also a new challenge for the protection of the endangered Chinese White Dolphin (CWD) which was discovered living along the western coast of Taiwan since the year 2002. It has a large overlapping occurred in the coastal place where the CWD population is inhabited around with human’s development activities. Therefore, the conservation actions are emergently needed tasks and immediately entangled with difficulties. The present study employs the qualitative tool to investigate the institutional policy on the conservation strategies related to the protection of endangered CWD. These include documental analysis of literatures, interviews, and observations to identify the key concepts for the conservation strategies. The interactions among context of the strategies, actions to impacts and threats, and scientific contributions are also analyzed.
The results are assessed according to three levels of conservation objectives, i.e. the individual/population, habitat, and ecosystem. The formal regulations cover the individual/population level much less than the habitat and ecosystem levels. The policies and scientific efforts are mostly concerned on the individual/population and habitat levels. The ecosystem level is ignored. The legal guidelines have set for the impacts and threats to the conservation policy, but there is lack of scientific investigation and input. It is imperative to emphasize the intensive interaction between scientific research and conservation strategies. The scientific development is obviously one of the key institutional policies of conservation.
This study examines three issues in relevance to the development of conservation strategies and the implementation of management. Furthermore, the present work concludes that the conservation strategy must perceive to a correct direction for future planning and implementation, in order to integrate the conservation capacity and achieving the comprehensive conservation results.
