Bangladesh has banned people from entering the world's largest mangrove forest.
The Sundarbans Reserve Forest is home to Bengal tigers and several other threatened species.
The closure will last for three months.
It aims to give wildlife a chance to flourish and breed.
The ban applies to tourists and to the communities that live around the forest and some residents say it has cut them off from their only source of income.

Al Jazeera’s Tanvir Chowdhury reports from the Sundarbans in southwest Bangladesh.
