Question

Suggest two ways of protecting our wildlife.

Accepted Answer

1. Setting up of Biosphere Reserve: Biosphere reserves are large areas of protected land for the conservation of forest and wildlife. Plant and animal resources and the traditional life of the tribes living in these areas are protected. Plantation, cultivation, grazing, cutting of trees, hunting, and poaching are strictly prohibited in these areas. The biosphere reserves also provide the ideal environment for research and development on wildlife. The purpose of biosphere reserves is the conservation of biological diversity in various ecosystems.

2. Building more national parks: Parks manage habitat to protect species, especially endangered and threatened species. Endangered species rely on parks for safe spaces: for them to eat, sleep, play, and be wild. It is up to us to share the space responsibly. Park rules are there to keep visitors and resources safe. National parks are important for preserving biodiversity through supporting ecosystems and the flora within them, protecting the environment through providing sustainable energy and mitigating the impact of climate change, and for national and local economies through supporting tourism and protecting agriculture.
