- 名稱:貓嶼海鳥保護區基本資料
- 成立時間:民國80年5月24日
- 面積:36.2公頃
- 地理位置:澎湖縣望安鄉
- 管理機關:澎湖縣政府
- 主要保育對象:保護海鳥及其棲地環境
- 說明:
澎湖群島,因面積狹小,且與陸地相隔,雖然陸棲性野生動物稀少,但海洋資源卻相當豐富。群島範圍內,無人島及礁岩性小島眾多,提供海鳥優良的棲息繁殖環境,位於澎湖縣望安鄉境內的大、小貓嶼,即為一例。陸域面積約10公頃的大、小貓嶼,由於四面皆為懸崖峭壁,人跡罕至,仍維持十分完整的自然風貌,因而成為燕鷗的最佳棲息場所。除燕鷗外,島上棲息的其他海鳥種類及數量亦多,為台灣地區罕見的壯麗景觀。
近年來前往貓嶼觀光的遊客日益增加,加上漁民經常至島上撿拾鳥蛋,以及國軍曾將此地列為靶場,都造成島上生態環境和鳥類資源的破壞,為維護貓嶼稀有的海鳥資源,澎湖縣政府於民國80年5月20日將大、小貓嶼依野生動物保育法公告為野生動物保護區〈為全國第一個野生動物保護區〉,並加以管理。
- 地理位置
保護區範圍包含大、小貓嶼陸地部份及其向外延伸100公尺之海域部份,總面積約36.2公頃。保護區位於望安島西南方約16公里處,為玄武岩構成的島嶼,因形狀有如大小兩隻貓趴在海上而得名。大貓嶼高約70公尺,為澎湖群島的最高處,四面為陡立的懸崖,攀登不易,只有東側有一海蝕平台,可供賞鳥者登陸。小貓嶼位於大貓嶼東方,退潮時有一寬約10公尺的海溝相連,高約50公尺,四周崖壁陡峭,無法攀爬。
- 自然環境
1.氣溫:年平均氣溫23.2℃;每年以1月最冷,平均約16.3℃;以7月最熱,平均約28.6℃。
2.雨量:澎湖群島年雨量約1,000公釐左右,但蒸發量達1,800公釐。
3.海拔高度:0-70公尺
4.地質特性:大、小貓嶼的岩層上層皆由較緻密的玄武岩構成,柱狀節理多呈彎曲狀;下層則由火山角礫岩組成。層間夾有較薄的多孔狀玄武岩。
- 棲地環境
貓嶼除少數草生地外,皆為裸露的玄武岩塊,其植物相以藜科、藍雪科及禾本科植物為主。貓嶼周圍岩礁散布,海流湍急,船隻不易通過,不易受干擾,且夏季受黑潮支流、冬季受大陸沿岸流影響,成為海洋洄游生物棲息產卵場所,因此附近海域的漁業資源豐富,充份供應海鳥的食物需求。
- 土地使用現況
本區過去曾為國軍的砲擊靶場,公告為野生動物保護區後,軍方已不再將此地作為靶場。目前大小貓嶼屬未登錄地,尚待辦理測量與登錄。島上雖無人居住,但常有漁民及遊客登島遊玩或撿拾鳥蛋、海螺等,冬季亦有漁民前往採集紫菜。
- 目前的管理狀況
海鳥保護區內,禁止各種騷擾海鳥及破壞生態環境之行為,並有巡護船進行巡邏取締工作。
