KHULNA, May 31 (BSS): The government has imposed a three-month ban on all entry into the Sundarbans from June 1 to August 31 to protect the breeding season of wildlife, fisheries resources and biodiversity in the world's largest mangrove forest.
During the period, fishermen, wood and honey collectors and tourists as well will not be allowed to enter the forest.
Talking to BSS, Conservator of Forests Imran Hossain said that June to August is the peak breeding season for most of the fish species, wildlife and plants in the Sundarbans.
"Fish spawn in rivers and canals, wildlife reproduce and seeds germinate during this period. To ensure an undisturbed natural environment and protect biodiversity, the annual three-month restriction has been imposed this year as well," he said.
