Hikers “saving” baby owls from naturally predated by a snake was publicly praised by pet welfare groups… and “animal lovers”.

The virus has brought tons of people to hiking trails all of a sudden. Good for them. But for the environment, the negative impact is escalating. I believe most hikers have a good heart. But they may have to learn more about wildlife. Here’s my 2¢.

Hong Kong is small in land size but surprisingly rich in biodiversity. Most locals do not realize our tiny concrete jungle has the world’s largest owl, the most trafficked mammal, the second-largest lizard, endemic species found nowhere else, and all that, which are so significant and fragile at the same time.
