Species Booklet

USAID's Hariyo Ban Program works for the conservation of more than 16 focal species across the Terai Arc Landscape and Chitwan-Annapurna Landscape. Most of these focal species are protected under the NPWC Act 2029 of Nepal, while many of them are also in the IUCN Red List. These booklets are prepared to share the status of each species, identify specific threats, and make conservation recommendations. The information in these booklets is useful for wide array of stakeholders including local communities, tourism enterprises, eco-clubs, and school-level students.
