There
are many unique species in Papua
New Guinea Rainforest.
New
Guinea is
one of those
places like Australia and Madagascar,
which
have been isolated for a long time - something that causes
the development of many unique species.
It
used to be that commercial
logging was fairly localised in New
Guinea. But lately, as in many other countries in the world, the
commercial operations start more and more to be linked to global
market. This increases the scale of logging.
