脫離非洲大陸已經有1800萬年的歷史,長期的地理隔離加上惡劣乾燥的環境氣候,孕育出極罕見的物種: 825種植物中有307種(37%),90%的爬蟲動物和95%的蝸牛品種,都是在地球上其它地方找不到的。聯合國教科文組織已於2008年將索科特拉島列入世界自然遺產。

Huge number of flora and fauna on Socotra are endemic, i.e., they are found nowhere else on Earth: 37% of Socotra’s 825 plant species, 90% of its reptile species and 95% of its land snail species. The island was recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as a world natural heritage site in July 2008.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb1 X$ C!

索科特拉島島上最著名的物種是龍血樹 (Dracaena Cinnabari),看起來就像飛碟一樣,帶著深紅色的樹汁。5.39.217.77:8898# g. i9 u* w% J* J0 [
One of the most striking of Socotra’s plants is the dragon’s blood tree (Dracaena Cinnabari), which is a strange-looking, UFO-shaped tree. The tree is so named because any possible injury to the bark results in a deep red liquid that excretes from the scar.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb6 E8 L. T( m" L! o1 l" N3 Z1 r
據說樹齡最高可達六千年,其深紅色的樹脂被命名為龍血竭,不但可用於醫藥、染料,也被用於巫術、煉金術與民間魔法。最新的調查報告顯示,氣候緩化令季節性雲量减少,造成索科特拉島水分缺乏,加上外來物種入侵,索科特拉島上幾乎已經沒有了自然生長的龍血樹幼苗。專家預期,或許在100年內,索科特拉島多數龍血樹都會死亡,這一植物將面臨滅絕困境。

Its red sap was thought to be the dragon’s blood of the ancients, sought after as a medicine and a dye, also inscribe as magical seals and talismans. Some scientists blame a lack of water caused by a decrease in seasonal cloud cover—and predict that many stands could disappear within a century.

索科特拉島,印度洋西部一群島,屬也門哈達拉毛省領土。其位置在阿拉伯半島以南約350公里,非洲之角以東,阿拉伯海與亞丁灣的交接處。該群島由4島組成,群島面積3650平方公里,主島面積3635平方公里。2008年,聯合國教科文組織將該地列入世界遺產名錄,登錄名稱為索科特拉群島。5.39.217.77:8898  T1 W% i- q7 L* q/ n
島上人口以阿拉伯人為主,說索科特拉語,主要城鎮Hadiboh人口約43000人,有機場。棗椰、煙草、畜牧業和漁業是島上經濟支柱。

好特別的地方與植物, 風化缺水是它的不幸也是它的卓越之處, 幸運是它地理上的隔離, 避免了商業化與人為的侵略, 使它仍可維持自然粗獷的景色, 保持其純真自然的美.

龍血樹號稱是地球上最長壽的樹種之一,最高齡可達6千歲,主要生長在非洲和亞洲南部等熱帶地區;其外型如同漏斗一般,可以有效接住每一滴雨水,而枝幹則像是渠道,將雨水導入樹根,因此即使在乾旱無雨的索科特拉島,它也能夠完全適應。
) F% o/ R, s. P1 l8 F/ P4 T一旦劃開龍血樹的樹皮,便會有鮮紅色的汁液汩汩流出,當地人將這些「龍血」製成染料,或作為治療呼吸道及腸胃問題的藥物;也有巫師會配合儀式和煉金術,用來提升自己的法力。: O8 }* g8 t: P4 K$ }7 P6 h6 F4 S
龍血在中國則被稱為「血竭」,又名「麒麟竭」,是專治跌打損傷的活血聖藥。
