- Western_Area_Forest_Reserve abstract "Western Area Forest Reserve, also known as the Western Area Peninsula Forest Reserve, is a non-hunting forest reserve in Sierra Leone. The area became a forest reserve in 1916 and has an area of 17,688 hectares (68.29 sq mi). It was demarcated by Charles Lane Poole, Sierra Leone's first ever 'Conservator of Forests,' and founder of the Sierra Leonean Forestry Department. It is the westernmost semi-deciduous closed canopy forest in Sierra Leone. The forest is home to various endangered species, including a wide variety of endangered birds and Duiker.Despite its protected status, the reserve has suffered from continuous deforestation, predominantly due to urban encroachment and related activities, a trend only exasperated by the civil war.A detailed deforestation study with a subsequent re-demarcation proposal has been conducted by the WAPFoR project. Results have been presented to the Government of Sierra Leone.There have been proposals to upgrade the reserve's status to a national park, and it is listed on some maps as the \"Western Area National Park\". Its status appears to remain \"proposed\". The Government of Sierra Leone has published the \"Statutory Instrument, Supplement to the Sierra Leone Gazette Vol. CXLIII, No.69 dated 29 November 2012, Proclamation For the Constitution of the Western Area Peninsula National Park\" (available in hardcopy only in the Government Bookshop Freetown) according to the boundaries defined by the WAPFoR Project. Furthermore UNESCO has accepted the Western Area Peninsula National Park’s application as tentative site as UNESCO World Heritage together with Tiwai Island and Gola Forest National Park.".
