岗卡章森林保护区

岗卡章森林保护区位于泰纳塞林山脉的泰国一侧，是沿着马来半岛呈南北方向延伸的花岗岩和石灰岩山脊的一部分。该遗产地位于喜马拉雅山、印度支那和苏门答腊动植物群区的交汇处，拥有丰富的生物多样性。植被以半常绿/旱常绿和湿润常绿林为主，混有落叶林、山地林和落叶龙脑香林。据报道，这里发现了许多地方性和全球性濒危植物物种，与2个重点鸟区重叠，以鸟类物种多样性闻名，其中包括 8个全球濒危鸟类物种。该遗产地是极度濒危的暹罗鳄、濒危的亚洲野犬、爪哇牛、亚洲象、缅甸陆龟和靴脚陆龟的家园，这里还生活着几种易危鸟类和哺乳动物。值得关注的是，这里也是8种猫科动物的栖息地：濒临灭绝的孟加拉虎和渔猫、近危的豹和亚洲金猫、易危的云豹和纹猫，以及丛林猫和豹猫。

The site is located along the Thailand side of the Tenasserim mountain range, part of a north-south granite and limestone mountain ridge running down the Malay Peninsula. Located at the cross-roads between the Himalayan, Indochina, and Sumatran faunal and floral realms, the property is home to rich biodiversity. It is dominated by semi-evergreen/dry evergreen and moist evergreen forest with some mixed deciduous forest, montane forest, and deciduous dipterocarp forest. A number of endemic and globally endangered plant species have been reported in the property, which overlaps with two Important Bird Areas (IBAs) and is noted for its rich diversity of birdlife, including eight globally threatened species. The property is home to the critically endangered Siamese Crocodile (Crocodylus siamensis), the endangered Asiatic Wild Dog (Cuon alpinus), Banteng (Bos javanicus), Asian Elephant (Elephas maximus), Yellow/Elongated Tortoise (Indotestudo elongata), and the endangered Asian Giant Tortoise (Manouria emys), as well as several other vulnerable species of birds and mammals. Remarkably, it is also home to eight cat species: the endangered tiger (Panthera tigris) and Fishing Cat (Prionailurus viverrinus), near-threatened Leopard (Panthera pardus) and Asian Golden Cat (Catopuma temminckii), the vulnerable Clouded Leopard (Neofelis nebulosi) and Marbled Cat (Pardofelis marmorata), as well as Jungle Cat (Felis chaus) and Leopard Cat (Prionailurus bengalensis).
