“Most of the seven forest reserves in the south have been devastated.”
Sabina Manda
“The forest-dwellers have grown weary of wandering in the forests; following the Guru's Teachings, see your Husband Lord within your heart.”
Atharva Veda
“As the forest went, so went the bird. It's an indicator species, representative of what we did to the forests. Having it return is perhaps a sign that the forests and habitat are coming back as well.”
David Luneau
“The forests of the South are among the richest in terms of total number of species of any habitats in the world. Given the growth in the South and the rapidly changing landscape, it is our outlook that many of these areas would in the next 20 years be converted from forests into fully developed landscapes.”
Steve McCormick
“All conversion of natural forests has to stop immediately. Conversion of forest into plantations, fields and settlements and rampant illegal logging are threatening some of the most important habitats of our endangered elephants and tigers.”
Adi Susmianto
“Forests shouldn't exist. The trees in the middle of the forest don't get enough light or nutrients to survive.”
Sherri Coale
“The forests of the South are among the richest in terms of total number of species of any habitats in the world.”
