■※課程目標及內涵 (Course Objectives and Contents) (限2000中文字)
一萬年前我們人類老老祖宗發展出農耕（agriculture）技術，也促進所謂人類文明（culture）的演進，拋開被野生物資源的限制。農耕文明的影響包含四大項：1. 族群人口數快速增加；2. 野生動植物畜養栽培的技術發達；3. 自然棲地消失。近千年來，人類對地球野生動物的迫害棲地破碎化（Habitat Fragmentation）、汙染（Pollution）及外來種（Exotic Species）等等惡名昭彰之事。人類這個生物物種其生存得仰賴整個生態系統的穩定，然而人類在科技文明的進步中，卻常忽略我們自身賴以生存的生態系統的重要性，尤其是生態系統提供的功能與服務。人類對生態系統的衝擊是其他生物所不能及的，人類必須更謙卑思考我們與所有生存在生態系統的野生物和其環境。
野生動物生態學是了解野生動物的主要知識來源，且作為經營管理的理論背景之依據。它已非存在學術機構，轉化成公民科學的普及知識。因為了解方可對其關心進而投入保育工作，這也是現代公民必備的生態價值。本課程也將介紹世界級台灣的野生動物生息現況，就台灣野生哺乳動物為例，於野外絕滅的物種，證據確鑿僅有梅花鹿1種，近年來研究顯示雲豹與水獺也幾乎可以說已於野外絕種。本課程也介紹野生動物保育相關政策與法令，如國內野生動物保育法於1989年實施。優先需保育的野生動物等級歸納為 (1)中大型物種或食物鏈高階的物種，(2)島嶼性或已知其族群分布呈現狹窄的物種優先，及(3)經濟價值高但人為狩獵濫用之物種優先等三大類型。
本課程亦將引導學生認識野生動物文學與自然攝影的科普教育推廣設計，針對如何結合人文與科學的跨與實例討論。
■※Course Objectives and Contents (limited to 2000 Chinese)
Ten thousand years ago, our old human ancestors developed agricultural technology, which also promoted the evolution of so-called human civilization and was restricted by wildlife resources. The impact of farming civilization includes four major items: 1. The population of ethnic groups has increased rapidly; 2. The technical development of wild animal cultivation; 3. The disappearance naturally. Over the past thousand years, human persecution of wild animals on Earth has been notoriously shattered, polluted, and exotic species. Humans live by this biological species that relies on the stability of the entire ecological system. However, in the advancement of scientific and technological civilization, humans often ignore the importance of our own ecological system to survive, especially the functions and services provided by the ecological system. Humans' impact on ecological systems is beyond the reach of other organisms, and humans must think more about us and all the wild creatures living in ecological systems and their environments.
Wild animal ecology is the main source of knowledge to understand wild animals and serves as the basis for the theoretical background of management. It no longer exists as a scientific institution and has transformed into popular knowledge of citizen science. Only by understanding can one pay attention to it and devote himself to childcare work. This is also a must-have ecological value for modern citizens. This course will also introduce the reproduction of wild animals in Taiwan. As for wild breastfeeding animals in Taiwan as an example, there is only one species of sika deer in the wild. Studies in recent years have shown that leopards and water can almost be said to be in the wild. The wild is absolutely irrelevant. This course also introduces policies and regulations related to wild animal conservation, such as the domestic wild animal conservation law implemented in 1989. The wild animal grades that need to be conserved are (1) medium and large species or high-level food chain species, (2) species with island homogeneity or known to have narrow ethnic distribution, and (3) those with high economic value but are used as hunting. There are three major types, including the priority of species.
This course will also guide students to popularize science education and promotion design for wild animal literature and nature photography, and discuss how to combine the cross-section and examples of humanities and science.
