The main threats of mammals
The present study shows that the forest ecosystem has exacerbated the deterioration of natural resources, and wildlife is facing major challenges as a result of manmade activities, which could lead to complete degeradation. The findings agree with (Geleta and Bekele, 2016; Legese et al ., 2019). In addition to habitat loss, anthropogenic activities can modify a habitat in ways that change species interactions, distribution, and diversity (Kasso and Bekele, 2014). Due to the low punitive system in the studied area, the practice of anthropogenic activities appeared to be unrestrained. Deforestation in the study area appeared to be exacerbated by a lack of tolerance among local and zonal forest workers (Girma Gizachew, 2021). Violations between forest wardens and loggers might not be enough to stop the situation unless their operations are governed by law. The proximity of Nekemte town to the forest, on the other hand, may have exacerbated forest devastation for fuel wood and construction materials. Charcoal production was used as the best revenue generation for poor people who are incapable of producing timber. If deforestation continues, the current flora and wildlife of the research region may go extinct. Despite this, poor communication and a lack of active engagement had resulted in misunderstandings between decision makers, resulting in selective fire fuel collecting being allowed (Girma Gizachew, 2021). As a result, conservation issues have remained unresolved for over a decade. Therefore, the challenges of wildlife conservation necessitate tolerance to overcome the constraints that conservation efforts face.
