Threats:
- Habitat Loss- Habitats have been lost in this area due to the forest being cut down for agricultural fields. They have also been lost because of the native people cutting down too many trees for timber.
- Climate Change- Many glaciers are melting forming lakes prone to flooding. Also water springs are drying up. Which limits the water supply in this area.
Conservation Efforts:
- Protection laws for the one horned rhino have been made to keep them from extinction
- Preserving the Sacred Himalayan Landscape- Initiative taken to restore essential habitats and protect endangered species.
