Resumen
Descripción
This report takes stock of the existing situation regarding nature conservation, wildlife and national parks in Liberia, and puts forward several proposals to remedy the situation described - which at first sight seemed hopeless. Urgent measures are absolutely necessary or the point of no return will be reached in Liberia, with all the economic and ecological consequences which that implies. The author is convinced that the setting up of the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) in 1976 and the g reat interest in conservation shown by the highest authorities of Liberia will allow for the forest ecosystem in Liberia to be saved before it is too late.
