Nepal also has many national parks to protect its rich flora and fauna. As population increases the people settlement is expanding in cities and encroaching into habitat of wildlife .This is not good for ecosystem. We as people need to control population but also preserve our natural wildlife..

Each national park has its unique ecosystem and wildlife. Many army barracks surround national park in Nepal for it's protection from smugglers. Since, many hunters and illegal merchants smuggle woods, plants and animal parts for international export .This can hamper the rare species and many if not preserved might go extinct. There are many rangers in national park who take care of the animals and plants in the park.
Many poachers are caught every year who hunt animal for their tusk and skin for mere profit in return devastating the ecosystem. In national park animal live in their natural habitat. Animal do not have to adjust, its the man who has too. We must all understand the importance of the national park and learn to protect it. Even though it might seem like short term profit , destruction of natural resources will lead to many devastation in humans life too.
Hence, national park is a very important step that a government should take but people of the community should also feel the ownership and importance of it's preservation.
