Abstract

I am to talk about botanic and zoological gardens and the role they play, or should play, in the conservation of our wild life in its broadest sense. To get everything straight, let us see in the first place what we mean by a botanic and a zoological garden. The simplest definition of a botanic garden is that of the International Directory of Botanic Gardens (2nd Ed. Fletcher, Henderson, and Prentice) which simply requires a garden to be open to the public and in which the plants are labelled.
