Abstract

The mangrove dominated deltaic Sundarbans is one of the most attractive and alluring wonderland in the planet Earth, which seems to inspire human being for unique natural creativity. For myriad reasons the Sundarbans has a unique position in the history, geography, literature and socio-cultural aspects of eastern Indian and Bangladesh. Lying at the southern tips of West Bengal where the land meets the sea forming a delta, the Sundarbans is the largest single block of tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world which is conspicuous for its size and biodiversity.
