此外,研究團隊亦定期進行監測來收集有關野放 動物的重要數據,包括動物的自然覓食方式、群 體行為以及與棲息地的互動,以了解牠們能否適 應新環境。這些資料將有助改善其他動物和物種 日後的野放計劃,並提高牠們的存活率。
計劃西米沙鄢群島保育的下一步
至今,團隊已調查了超過五公頃的野放試行地 點,以了解這些棲息地長遠而言是否適合野放、 其潛在威脅和其他物種的蹤跡。團隊並在該處興 建了圍欄,並把即將被野放的動物單獨放在個別 圍欄中,以便記錄和分析牠們的健康和行為狀 況。當完成調查後,這些動物將會完全放歸大自 然。與此同時,社區外展項目和教育工作亦同步 進行,包括聘用了當地居民和教育人員為計劃增 加支援,務求促進社區合作,推動當地保育的未 來發展。
Regular monitoring allows the team to collect important data on how the released animals adapt to their new environment, including their natural feeding regimes, social behaviours and habitat interactions. This information will help improve future release strategies for other individuals and species, increasing their overall survival rate.
Planning the Next Steps in West Visayas
To date, over five hectares of the site has been surveyed for habitat suitability, threats and presence of species, and enclosures have been constructed at the soft release site. These animals are now being housed in separate enclosures so that their health and behaviour can be recorded and analysed; once complete, they will be fully released into the wild. Community outreach and education efforts are also underway, including hiring local personnel and an education officer, to enhance support for and cooperation in this project and future conservation efforts.

這個物種再引入計劃的目的,旨在令多個西米沙鄢群島特有的物種數量回復到 可持續發展水平,這些物種包括米沙鄢梅花鹿(Rusa alfred)、米沙鄢疣豬 (Sus cebrifrons)、內格羅雞鳩(Gallicolumba keayi)、皺嘴皺盔犀鳥 (Rhabdotorrhinus waldeni)及棕尾斑嘴犀鳥(Penelopides panini)。
This reintroduction project aims to create self-sustaining populations for a number of species endemic to the West Visayan region, including the Visayan spotted deer (Rusa alfredi), Visayan warty pigs (Sus cebrifrons), Negros
bleeding heart doves (Gallicolumba keayi), Walden's hornbills (Rhabdotorrhinus waldeni) and tarictic hornbills
(Penelopides panini).
