What to Focus On
- Biodiversity = variety of all life forms and the ecosystems they create.
- India is among the world's 12 mega-biodiversity nations.
- All living organisms form a complex ecological web in which humans are just one part.
- India has ~47,000 plant species and ~90,000 animal species.
- India holds about 8% of the world's total species.
- Many species are yet to be discovered.
- Conservation preserves ecological diversity and genetic resources.
- Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act was enacted in 1972.
- The Act banned hunting and restricted trade in wildlife.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Reserved Forests are open for public use and collection of forest produce, while Protected Forests are the most strictly conserved.
Project Tiger was launched to save tigers only as an animal species, and had no broader ecological significance.
Conservation of forests and wildlife is solely the government's responsibility and local communities only harm the environment.
Memory Tips

Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act — implemented in 1972
