They are few in number and move in secrecy. In order to understand the life of this precious salamander, Shei-pa National Park Headquar ters commissioned experts to survey and make a documentary film “In Search of the Relic Species from the Jurassic Period” by film director Chin-fa Chen.

The film unveils the secret life of the precious Guanwu Salamanders, and becomes a significant milestone for the conservation achievement in Taiwan.
