      Revelation 3:20
      Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
      HEY THERE 🤗 JESUS IS CALLING YOU TODAY. Turn away from your sins, confess, forsake them and live the victorious life. God bless.
      Revelation 22:12-14
      And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
      I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
      Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

    A lot of the comments bothered me. Teamwork is one of the most important tools we can use in situations like this. Of course locals knew about this place first, they are now starting offical research to officially catalog & document things. This is a place that they've said has been unaccessible due to war for a very long time. So now scientists across the world are coming together to work together on this project. No one is trying to do anything other than show their respect for this very unique place in the world. The most important thing is to make sure to protect this region from development. It should be treated as a world heritage sight is. Where it proves that it's a rare ecosystem, habitat, place that deserves to be respected and not let toxic development occur throughout it.. I wish more people could see things from a different point of view.. All of these researchers respected & cherish this place

      1. If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
      2. Set your affection on the things which are above and not on things which are on the earth.
      3. For ye are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God.
      4. When Christ, which is our life shall appear, so shall ye also appear with him in Glory.

      @hitthedeck4115 "Evidence to justify the forest's protection "….. It's common sense to protect natural resources, why need a reason to not kill the earth? It bothers me more that Apparently this forest was a "secret", roughly translating to the western world hadn't taken notice, but now it needs to be "saved".
      Limited or no limited resources, the exposure is the beginning of the end... I can go further ahead and say this documentary is part of the problem. Now we all know of the "secret" forest. It's about time scientists/tourists/ researchers and grabbers do their thing and ruin it.... Just my simple take.

Though one can also argue that we had been always doing that pre-agriculture but we were much more limited at that time since we couldn't rely on our primitive technology to transform nature but rather, live according to its strict rules. We can still see traces of our ancestral wisdom when we had to live one with nature.

Also weird point about there being other successful conservation stories, does that devalue this success story? Should we only ever report things once? There’s nuance which makes this story unique and gives it justification for its own report. If you’re not interested then don’t watch it lol
