Maolin : Environment Protection

In recent years, local people started to realize that natural resources could be lost. Since the opening of Maolin National Scenic Area, the area has drawn thousands of tourists and consequently suffered damage to the environment. The damage was particularly threatening to some species of butterflies. Learning the facts, local people have voluntarily joined butterfly conservatory associations, sponsored research and taken action to protect and restore local habitats, limiting entrance by way of reservation.
