Cardamom National Park, Cambodia
Cardamom National Park, Cambodia
In the uneasy peace that followed the Cambodian Civil War, the Cardamom Mountains suffered rampant logging, poaching, and slash-and-burn agriculture as people struggled to find their way in this post-conflict era. The areas of the Cardamoms that survived that period, however, remain some of Southeast Asia’s most pristine expanses of wilderness.
Global Conservation is now fighting to protect Cardamom National Park from ongoing deforestation and wildlife poaching.
