Wildlife Sanctuary
Soon Paheli sees a board with ‘Pachmarhi Wildlife Sanctuary’ written on it. Prof. Ahmad explains that, like reserve forests, wildlife sanctuaries provide protection and suitable living conditions to wild animals. Madhavji further explains that sanctuaries are places where killing (poaching) or capturing of animals is strictly prohibited.It is a pity that even protected forests are not safe because people living in the neighbourhood encroach upon them and destroy them. Children are reminded of their visit to the zoo. They recall that zoos are also places where animals receive protection.
