Students create videos for endangered animals competition

2023-05-25

To raise awareness of animal conservation, a tourism group and a cultural foundation held a competition called “Zookeeper Junior.” Children were invited to submit videos, drawings, or other works that introduce endangered animals. More than 100 works were submitted over two months. FTV reporter Stephany Yang meets the young winners and finds out more about their works.

Speaking fluent English, he gives a PowerPoint presentation about Formosan black bears. This is Kuo Han-tien, the first-place winner in the English individual category. Kuo hopes that his presentation can bring to light the crisis that Formosan black bear faces.

Kuo Han-tien
Winner
I chose Formosan black bear for my topic because I think they were cute and the first animal in my mind when I heard the topic about endangered animals are Formosan black bears. I want to work with non-governmental organizations to let the Formosan black bear stay in Taiwan and don’t go from endangered to extinct.

There’s also this brother-and-sister duo who played the role of a news anchor and reporter. Their presentation was about the challenges faced by Taiwan’s leopard cats.

Huang Yun-hui
Winner
I previously participated in a news anchoring competition. I was in charge of speaking, and my brother was in charge of acting. We had a good time working with each other.

To encourage animal conservation, a tourism group and cultural foundation held a competition inviting children to introduce endangered animals through a variety of mediums, such as videos, graphics, and drawings. Over two months, 100 works were submitted, putting the spotlight on Formosan black bears, leopard cats, rhinos, and other endangered animals.

Chuang Feng-ju
CEO
We saw that many works were very well done, but this time the works pertained to animal conservation, so the accuracy of the information was also very important.

Organizers held an award ceremony to honor the young winners. It hopes that through the competition, it can raise public awareness about animals and biodiversity issues in Taiwan.

"我的主題選擇台灣黑熊,因為我覺得牠們很可愛,而且當我聽到瀕臨滅絕的動物,我第一個就想到台灣黑熊。我想和非營利組織合作,讓台灣黑熊留在台灣,不要從瀕危走向絕種。"

還有一對姊弟化身記者及主播,以播報新聞的方式來呈現台灣石虎遇到的生存困境。
