Explanation:

1. The importance of forests cannot be underestimated. We depend on forests for our survival, from the air we breathe to the wood we use. Besides providing habitats for animals and livelihoods for humans, forests also offer watershed protection, prevent soil erosion and mitigate climate change.

2. The loss of trees and other vegetation can cause climate change, desertification, soil erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and a host of problems for indigenous people.

3. The wildlife sanctuaries are established to protect the endangered species. It is quite difficult to always relocate the animals from their natural habitat, therefore, protecting them in their natural environment is advantageous. The endangered species are specially monitored in the wildlife sanctuaries.

4. Easy Things You Can Do To Help Preserve Wildlife

(1) Preserve habitat of wildlife.

(2) Provide water.

(3) Use Eco-friendly products.

(4) Feed birds and animals the right way.

(5) Don't trim your trees and shrubs in spring.

(6) Take care of wildlife habitat.

(7) Keep your pet cat indoors.

  • HOW CAN WE PROTECT THE WILDLIFE IN THE FORESTS?

ANS) Following are some of the major steps for conservation of forest:

  1. With the advent of industrialization, several trees have been cut at an alarming rate for raw materials and various other purposes. This felling of trees can be regulated by selective cutting, clear-cutting and shelterwood cutting.
  2. Forest fires are one of the common causes of loss of forests. Sometimes the forest land is set on fire to make the land available for commercial purposes. Once cleared, there can be no vegetation. Natural forest fires are also responsible for the destruction of huge forest covers. Latest fire fighting techniques should be adopted to conserve the forest. However, forest fires are an important part of the ecosystem and it helps replenish nutrients in the soil from dead and decaying matter.
  3. More trees should be planted to increase the forest cover. Trees should be selected according to the geographical conditions of a particular region and proper care should be taken during the growth of trees.
  4. Prevention of exploitation of forestry and forest products is necessary for the conservation of forest.
  5. The existing forests should be protected from diseases by spraying chemicals, antibiotics or development of pest-resistant strains of trees.
