It is the study of ecology about the relationship between plants and animals and the environment in which they live, has come across many barriers more than before and is threatening the present existence of the entire planet. One can see the consequences of this, such as unprecedented floods, seasonal rains, and rapid migration of species. The human race has now begun to think about the rapid deterioration of the environment. As a result of this thought, the voice of protecting nature has started to brighten.
