SPCA-幫助拯救香港野生動物

本會統計數字顯示由1996年至2010年,本會把1,145頭野生動物轉交嘉道理農場暨植物園接受康復治療,包括由大野豬以至小白腰雨燕等155種不同品種。被拯救的最常見品種包括黑鳶、領角鴞、小白腰雨燕、鳳頭蒼鷹及珠頸斑鳩,該五種品種合計佔所有個案的三分之一。有些獲救的品種在香港十分罕有,例如棕腹杜鵑和白喉磯鶇,有些甚至在全球也是十分罕有,如斑頭大翠烏,已被國際自然資源保護聯盟列為「瀕危品種」。

SPCA-Wildlife rescue in Hong Kong

Over the past 15 years the SPCA has been responsible for rescuing over 1000 wildlife casualties and then delivery of them to KFBG for rehabilitation. Some years have been busier than others, for example 2003 was busy with 117 casualties, and 2006 was particularly quiet with only 45 as shown in Graph 1. Over the years a total of 155 different species were rescued, the most common being our commonest birds of prey: the Black Kite, the Collared Scops Owl. A table that shows all the species and numbers can be seen at the bottom of this page.

I have this thought some years ago that HKBWS can set up a team to rescure birds on streets.  With some training in handling birds, we may get the necessary permit from the government to pass injured birds to Kadoorie, or to put healthy juvenile birds back onto its nest.  I hope HKBWS can follow this up.  Don't worry too much about manpower, everything starts small.  Look at Taipei Wild Bird Society as an example, they got a very good team.
