Answer 1

Nepal embarked upon modern era of wildlife conservation with the enactment of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation Act in 1973. The Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation presently works with a network of 8 National Parks, 4 Wildlife Reserves, 3 Conservation Areas, 1 Hunting Reserve including 5 Buffer Zones around national parks, covering a total of 27,345 sq. km., or 18.58% of the country’s total land. It was established to conserve, restore and manage the rich and varied fauna, flora and the landscape of the mountainous kingdom of Nepal. An office had been set up in 1972 under the Department of Forests, His Majesty’s Government of Nepal, to initiate the task before it was formally upgraded as a Department in 1980. Altitudinal variances in short distance give Nepal’s bio-geography variety that range from lush moist forests and sparse alpine deserts to luxurious grasslands in lowland terai. The Himalayan kingdom also shelters some of the world’s rare animals. Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest) National Park and Royal Chitwan National Park with typical natural, cultural and landscape characteristics were listed as World Heritage Sites in 1979 and 1984 respectively. The Koshi Tappu Wildllife Reserve, a wetland of international significance, was declared a Rammer Site in 1987.
