Keeping everyone informed
PLANT [Preserving Land and Nature (Guarantee) Pvt. Ltd.] is one of the most ambitious projects undertaken by the Wildlife and Nature Protection Society (WNPS) of Sri Lanka. Focused on the South western region of Sri Lanka, the island’s most bio-diverse quarter and home to most of the country’s endemic species, PLANT aims to build, “Almost uninterrupted or reasonably connected corridors of protected natural spaces and forest ecosystems,” linking Sri Lanka’s remaining forests and protected reserves across the land, allowing it to heal and let nature take its course.
PLANT (Preserving Land and Nature (Guarantee) Pvt Ltd), an affiliate of the WNPS (Wildlife and Nature Protection Society) envisioned Emerald Trails as a series of continuous wildlife corridors linking the major wildlife hotspots in the endemic rich southwest of the island.
