Styan's bulbul is endemic to Taiwan and only distributed in Hualien, Taitung, Pingtung and southern regions. Although relatively common in regions around Taitung, due to the overlapping nature of habitats like Hualien’s Tienhsiang (天祥) with Pingtung’s Fangshan (枋山) and Fenggang (楓港) etc., coupled with the suspected release of light-vented bulbul into Styan's bulbul habitat by animal liberationists in religious groups, a hybrid bird phenomenon has emerged. As a result of the situation, Styan's bulbul is now being protected under the endangered species classification ‘Other Conservation-Deserving Wildlife.’  

Styan's bulbul is regarded as an emblem of Taitung and also of Taitung Wild Bird Society. Unfortunately, in spite of the fact it faces no less of a threat than that of other protected species of wildlife, owing to its fairly extensive distribution it has failed to receive the same kind of concern. Styan's bulbul is one of the main bird species that all visiting bird enthusiasts from around the globe come to see in Taitung.

Found in low-altitude habitat regions all over Taitung, large and lively flocks of Styan's bulbul are frequently seen and heard in the vicinity of public parks close to residential areas, as well as in broad-leaved forests. On account of the fact that Styan's bulbul is found in places where people regularly visit, human behavior has a huge impact the bird.

台灣特有種烏頭翁 的生存危機
烏頭翁是台灣特有種鳥類,只分佈在花東和屏東南部地區,雖然在台東地區相當常見,但因為在花蓮天祥一帶,及屏東枋山楓港等地棲地彼此重疊,因此曾發生雜交的現象,加上疑似有宗教的放生行為,白頭翁被放生至烏頭翁棲地,衍生出雜頭翁的情形,所以烏頭翁仍被列為「其他應予保育之野生動物」之易危鳥種。

烏頭翁為台東縣縣鳥。也是台東縣鳥會的會鳥,由於分佈尚稱廣泛,所以並不像其他保育類鳥類一樣受到重視,但是牠所面臨的威脅絕對不亞於其他的保育類野生動物。世界各國許多愛好鳥類專家到台東來,烏頭翁常是他們指定要觀察的鳥種之一。

烏頭翁是屬於中低海拔的鳥類,在台東地區幾乎隨處可見,就是人群居住的住宅公園附近及山區的闊葉林中,經常成群追逐嬉戲鳴叫。由於這些環境同時也是人們經常活動的地方,所以人類的行為對牠們的影響甚鉅。
