Mangroves are the source of life
The lush mangrove forests along the coast offer natural beauty and are a source of life for fishermen. The strong roots of mangroves not only protect the land from erosion, but also provide a home for various marine biota such as fish, crabs and shrimp. For fishermen, mangroves are an ecosystem that supports their livelihoods, providing nesting places and shelter for marine animals which are then caught as a source of livelihood. Apart from its charming charm, mangrove forests are natural fortresses that maintain the balance of the ecosystem while providing a livelihood for coastal communities.
