The number of mangrove tree here is descending as compared to 20 years back. The decreases in number of mangrove tree can be stop by having a proper management plan. The local people here do not appreciate mangrove forest and they are destroying it. To protect this area from destruction by local people, it is needed to rise their awareness of the valuable of mangrove forest by conducting activities together with local people regarding mangrove forest. Other than that, development of this area has destroyed the nature of this forest. Hence, this process damages the mangrove seedling and old trees too. |
