Experience the breathtaking beauty of Mount Hehuan covered in a 10-centimeter snowfall. Despite the sunny skies, the snow remained intact due to the mountain’s high altitude and low temperatures. Enthusiasts flocked to witness the mesmerizing scene, with ice pellets gracefully falling alongside the snow. The recent cold spell from the mainland caused temperatures to plummet, creating a chilly blanket across Taiwan. The Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency of Nantou Branch advised using four-wheel-drive vehicles with snow chains for safety. Stay warm and properly equipped with crampons, ice axes (or trekking poles), helmets, and sufficient warm clothing for a winter mountain climbing adventure.

A Formosan black bear accidentally trapped in Taichung was rescued and transported to a medical care station in Nantou’s Jiji Township by Taiwan’s Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency. The bear’s right forelimb was caught in a trap, and it was unable to free itself. A team of forest rangers hiked uphill for an hour to reach the bear, and with the assistance of a veterinarian, they successfully released it from the trap and treated its wounds. The incident may be related to the bears moving to lower altitudes due to sudden temperature drops. The agency encourages residents to report any bear intrusions or trapped bears and offers assistance with hunting tools for those in mountain villages facing threats to their crops from wild animals.

A Formosan black bear, injured at a coffee plantation in Taiwan, has been released back into the wilderness after four months of intensive care. The bear, named ＂Da qu-ali＂ after a Bunun indigenous leader, triggered a trap in July and underwent successful surgery to recover. Weighing 101 kilograms, the bear was deemed fit for reintroduction. Major wildlife conservation organizations participated in the release, which included a divine naming ceremony led by tribe chief Ho Cheng-chung. The Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency used the incident to highlight the importance of wildlife conservation and encouraged local residents to create bear-friendly environments.
