Wetland Ecological Restoration for Damselfly in Hong Kong – The Case of Sha Po Marsh in Park Yoho
Sha Po Marsh is the first wetland conservation integrated real estate development project in Hong Kong. Sun Hung Kai Properties restored a 5-hectare marsh near Yuen Long Sha Po during the development of the Park Yoho project. Since the restoration began in 2014, over 180 species have inhabited the area, including the critically endangered Four-Spot Midget Damselfly. How did the government, property developers, ecological experts, and landscape designers transform a degraded wasteland into a brackish wetland designed for the Four-Spot Midget?
