Of all the habitats in the country, forests have perhaps suffered the most from mass extraction. More and more forests have been cleared for agricultural land, fuel wood, housing, infrastructure and commercial logging. Forest area declined from 73% before the 1960s to 58% of land area by 2000 and some sources even put it significantly lower. The Government addressed these problems by canceling logging concessions, curbing illegal logging, seizing equipment and illegally harvested logs, and closing illegal sawmills. Similarly, mangroves in coastal areas declined as these were cleared for charcoal and aquaculture. Coral reefs and seagrass beds also deteriorated due to destructive fishing practices.
