Answers
Answer:
Emerging as the capital’s most visited public place and prominent center for learning and understanding the environment, the Yamuna Biodiverstity Park has become a home for a diversity of forest communities, biologically rich wetlands, grassland communities, a wide variety of fruit yielding species and an abundance of medicinal herbs. The Park also comprises native flora and fauna which used to exist many decades before and then became extinct locally. It further, acts as a natural conservation site for specific group of endangered plants. The Yamuna Biodiversity Park is presently spread over an area of approximately 457 acres near Wazirabad village on the western bank of the river Yamuna.
The park features two major zones - the visitor zone and the nature reserve zone.
The front portion of the Yamuna Biodiversity Park, a 220m southward and 140m northward stretch from the main entry gate with 20-30m width is demarcated as Domesticated Biodiversity Zone. Enclosed by a hedge of poplar, it features plants like Ailanthus, Butea and Bauhinia that have a continuous seasonal interest due to their long flower production throughout the season. The outer iron fencing is embraced by multi-coloured climbers like Jasmine and Quisqualis with the same theme of continual luxury.
The display of about 500 varieties of 80 species of fruit yielding plants in a small area reveals the astounding diversity found amongst fruiting plants. The conservatory provides some unfamiliar fruits in addition to many familiar ones. Khirni (Mimusops hexandra) – a locally extinct species is thriving as are Kaith (Feronia limonia), pomegranate (Punica granatum), sapota (Achyrus sapota), jamun (Syzygium cumuni), gauava (Psidium guajava), amla (Emblica officinalis), Citrus sp., grapes (Vitis sp), loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) and ber (Zizyphus mauritiana). The conservatory houses a variety of birds such as parakeets, yellow footed green pigeons, munias, babblers, coppersmith barbets, bulbuls and peafowl in large flocks, as well as diversity of snakes.
