Bio-resources in tropical countries are usually concentrated in designated protected areas. The managers of these protected areas habitually focus on conservation of some charismatic and appealing animals and their prey or fodder base but ignore all inclusive diversity and significance of plant wealth therein. Besides what does not occur to them is that plant wealth does amount to wildlife too.

Abstract


Bio-resources in tropical countries are usually concentrated in designated protected areas. The managers of these protected areas habitually focus on conservation of some charismatic and appealing animals and their prey or fodder base but ignore all inclusive diversity and significance of plant wealth therein. Besides what does not occur to them is that plant wealth does amount to wildlife too.
