Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 WWF News - December 2006WWF News Help save Europe's oldest lowland forest The Bialowieza Forest, situated on the border of Poland and Belarus, is the last remaining natural lowland forest in Europe. Abundant in wildlife, it houses a vast treasure trove of different species: thousands of plants, hundreds of birds and more than 50 types of mammal. Unfortunately, only 17% of the Polish area is protected as a national park. The rest is subject to logging of old trees - an enormous threat to the natural harmony of the forest and the survival of its wildlife. Help us save this truly special place by signing our petition demanding that the national park is extended to cover the whole area of the forest in Poland http://passport.panda.org/campaigns/campaign.cfm?uNC=53100509 & uCampaignId=13 41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
