Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The protection of forests and wildlife is critical for maintaining ecological balance, preserving biodiversity, and mitigating climate change. Over the years, various legal frameworks at national and international levels have been developed to safeguard these natural resources. These frameworks aim to prevent deforestation, curb poaching, and protect endangered species. However, despite these legal efforts, challenges persist in enforcing laws due to factors like weak governance, corruption, economic pressures, and conflicting interests. This paper examines key legal frameworks aimed at protecting forests and wildlife, explores the challenges that hinder effective enforcement, and discusses potential solutions to overcome these barriers to conservation.
