Biodiversity is measured by the number of different life forms found in an area. In a forest, various species exist which include bacteria, fungi, ferns, plants, nematodes, insects, birds, reptiles and mammals. Forests are therefore considered as biodiversity hot spots.
An individual can contribute in the management of forests and wildlife by:
- avoiding cutting down of forests and killing of wildlife.
- educating people about the importance of forests and wildlife in our life.
