India's biological diversity is reflected in the heterogeneity of its forest cover. It is one of the 12 'mega-diversity' countries of the world. India is also at the meeting zone of three major bio-geographic realms, namely the Indo-Malayan (the richest in the world), the Eurasian and Afro-tropical. India also has the two richest bio-diversity areas, one in the northeast and other in the Western Ghats. The biological diversity is being conserved through a network of biosphere reserves, national parks and sanctuaries. However, the challenges for conservation emanate from population pressures, adverse impacts of industrialization and intensifying threats from illegal trade.
