4.1.1.2 Priority Conservation Areas-2
Priorities Conservation Areas-2 brown color in Figure 13, is globally, regionally or nationally significant large landscape level forests. This part of the
HCVA definition aims to identify those forests that contain viable populations of most if not all naturally occurring species. It also includes forests that contain
important sub-populations of very wide-ranging species even though the sub- populations may not in themselves be viable in the long term. It includes forests
where ecological processes and ecosystem functioning are wholly or relatively unaffected by recent human activities. Such forests are necessarily large tens of
thousands of hectares.

Priorities Conservation Areas-2 identified in NKSNP is a forest community between Paitchao Mountain Range and Lore Reserve. It’s occupied

or 15.13 forested land. It is needed to consider this forests area as habitat corridors that connecting Paitchao Mountain Range and Lore Reserve and
Paitchao Mountain Range and North Dry Low Land Forest. It’s also significant forest for watersheds catchment such Urunami Catchments consists of several
permanent major rivers, such as Namao River, Lapalapa River and Urunami River. Corridor forest play important functions in wilderness movement such
birds and mammals from and to Paitchao Mountain Range, Vero River Estuary, Valu Beach, Iralalaro Lake Birds Site, and Lore Reserve Forest, Com Beach,
Numunira Lake and surrounded areas. Swidden and slash burn agriculture and illegal logging are major issue in
forest degradation. Re-allocated to a permanent agriculture land for agro-diversity along major roads or permanent agriculture land would be help decreasing the
cutting trees for cropping.
