Concerted efforts are the need of the hour to conserve the rich contiguous rainforest patch of Dihing-Patkai Wildlife Sanctuary and its adjoining Upper Assam’s Tinsukia and Dibrugarh districts.
‘The presence of this valuable stretch of tropical rainforest puts a responsibility on us to protect it and chalk out a sustainable model for the judicious utilisation of its immense resources,’ noted wildlife conservationist Soumyadeep Dutta of ‘Nature’s Beckon’ said during the launch of a pictorial book ‘Rainforests of Assam’ here on Thursday. The rainforests cover more than 500 sq km of tropical forest land spread across Joypur.
