Based on our results, we show the critical importance of the ?wildlife preservation? approach for effective biodiversity conservation. The study also provides examples of a practical application of rigorous methods of quantitative sampling of different plant and animal taxa as well as human influences, thus serving as a useful manual for protected area managers. Protected areas of various kinds have been established in India with the goal of arresting decline in, and to provide for, recovery of biodiversity and ecosystem services. A model that targets ?wildlife preservation? under state ownership is practiced across the country. However, forests in India are under intensive human pressure and varying levels of protection; therefore, protected areas may also experience open-access resource use, a model that is being aggressively advocated as a viable alternative to ?preservationism?. We have evaluated the conservation efficacy of alternative forest management models by quantifying levels of biodiversity under varied levels of access, resource extraction and degree of state-sponsored protection in the Nagarahole forest landscape of southwestern India. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Ecology,$x2192-4759 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aApplied ecology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aBiotic communities 606 $aAnimal ecology 606 $aConservation Biology/Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 606 $aApplied Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19023 606 $aBiodiversity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031 606 $aCommunity & Population Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19120 606 $aAnimal Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 0$aApplied ecology. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aBiotic communities. 615 0$aAnimal ecology. 615 14$aConservation Biology/Ecology. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 615 24$aApplied Ecology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aCommunity & Population Ecology. 615 24$aAnimal Ecology. 676 $a333.95160954 700 $aReddy$b G.
