exercising regulations on detrimental developmental activities in the vicinity of the Jaldapara National Park.
The Park is under pressure from degradation caused by human activities, including agriculture, tea plantations,
cattle rearing, small-scale services, and other local industries. In an effort to lessen the reliance on forest
resources, the Park administration has been promoting eco-tourism and other sustainable livelihood initiatives;
