In Africa, you can come across Kaya forests of coastal Kenya, customary forests in Uganda, sacred forest groves in Benin, dragon forests in The Gambia or church forests in Ethiopia...You can also come across similar forest patches in South and Southeast Asia including numerous sacred groves in India well-known for their role in conservation of biological diversity, Dr. Shonil Bhagwat told mongabay. Culturally-protected forests are common everywhere in the tropics...but I think they have remained the unsung heroes of tropical forest conservation thus far. We are fascinated by the vastness of the so-called pristine tropical forest whilst overlooking forest fragments right in our backyards.
