There were some problems identified in Yungaburra, what caused them and what methods were used for primary assessment. For instance, the lack of forest cover was caused by deforestation for agricultural land and the method used for this assessment was a drone. The forests were cut down due to the expansion of tea estates. Now, the forest coverage is lessening each day, as tea estate owners, who are very influential, try to cultivate more lands. Furthermore, Yungaburra’s forest composition was caused by tipping points and the problem was discovered through an ecological survey. The Burra Burra tribe knows about the peculiarities of the situation in the area, including the natural, economic, and social aspects. A survey was held to ask them about the issues they found concerning. Moreover, it was affirmed that the lemur population is at stake and what led to it were hunting and habitat loss. As stated previously, the owners of tea estates expanded their lands by cutting down trees. They ignored the fact that the forests were a natural habitat of lemurs, endangered primates, which led to the dwindling of the lemur population. This fact has impacted the local people too, who relied on hunting. As they lost their source of protein, many of the locals have been found to be malnourished. This issue was uncovered through indigenous knowledge and a research center. Additionally, the tea plantation number has also become an issue due to expansion. This leads to the problem of tea estates being a danger to the natural environment of Yungaburra.
The goal of protecting the biological and landscape diversity of Yungaburra is threefold: it consists, firstly, in the optimal use and support from locals of protected areas, secondly, in protecting regions from depletion, and thirdly, in removing the tourist lodges and trails from sacred grounds of BurraBurra tribe. The government can regulate the activities of people only within a rigid framework that does not always meet the requirements of individual localities or ecosystems.
