Inspired from the concepts of "kavu"

We should literally put effort to protect each and every species.

Sacred groves, also called Kavu in Malayalam language, are rich abodes of biodiversity. They are often seen on the premises of Hindu ancestral homes in the villages.

It was a common practice among the people to assign a portion of the land on which they built house to serpent god Naga or goddess Durga. Felling of trees or even removing a twig from these lands were considered taboo. The groves were looked after and maintained by joint families.

Establishment of sacred groves was also seen as traditional efforts by the villages to conserve biodiversity and water resources. All the animals , birds , trees inside this area are protected and human entry itself is restricted on some of the Groves.

Each initiative to save nature and species is great and much needed!!!!
