Answer 2

FOREST DEPARTMENT (along with local communities) conserve the SACRED GROVES.

First of all, what are sacred groves?

• Sacred groves are classic examples of in-situ conservation of flora and fauna, characterized by 50-500 hectares of forest land conserving endangered/endemic species of flora and fauna.

• In majority of the cases, the local communities and the forest departments work together to protect the sacred groves.

Uses of sacred groves:

• The wide vegetation helps to prevent soil erosion and desertification.

• The grooves are a source of natural commodities that can be used by the communities.

• The grooves also contain ponds and streams which can provide the water requirements for the community.

• Most importantly, the sacred groves help to conserve endangered species of plants and animals which have already become extinct in the neighbouring areas.
