Taipei Zoo Introduction
Action to turn the trend of endangered species starts with you and me! Tourists often ask: Why is the emblem of Taipei Zoo a Formosan Sika Deer? It turns out that the rehabilitation of the Formosan Sika Deer is not only a highly successful conservation example but also Taiwan's first case of reintroduction of wild animals through conservation breeding in a zoo. By understanding the journey of the Formosan Sika Deer rehabilitation, we can explore the value of zoos and their importance in wildlife conservation. Therefore, when the Taipei Zoo moved from Yuanshan to its new location in Muzha in 1986, it adopted the Formosan Sika Deer as its new emblem. Taipei Zoo is the largest zoo in Southeast Asia, featuring a rich and diverse variety of animals, and you might not be able to finish exploring it in a whole day! Before your visit, you might want to browse the official website for the park map and suggested itineraries, select your personalized route, and fully enjoy the adorable animals!
