Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C), (D)

The correct options are
A Setting up national parks and biosphere reserves
C Projects to protect endangered animals
D Afforestation drives

In order to protect animals, many national parks, sanctuaries and biosphere reserves have been set up. The Government has also started projects like Project Tiger and Project Elephant to protect these animals. Deforestation to clear land for domestic cattle grazing leads to genetic erosion of wild flora and fauna.
