A Comparative Study of Land Use Change on Forest Cover of Selected Wildlife Parks

Abstract

This BSc study investigates the subject matter outlined in the title above through a structured research design appropriate to the BSc level. Using primary and/or secondary data collection methods, the research examines the underlying variables, tests relevant hypotheses, and presents findings with implications for practice and policy. This is placeholder abstract text generated for catalogue preview purposes; the full document contains a complete, topic-specific abstract, literature review, methodology, data analysis, and conclusion.

Chapter One — 1.1 Background to the Study

Land Use Change has become an increasingly important area of inquiry in the study of selected wildlife parks, as researchers seek a more precise, evidence-based understanding of how it shapes measurable outcomes.

Despite this interest, the precise relationship between land use change and forest cover in selected wildlife parks remains incompletely characterized, particularly under conditions typical of Nigeria's research and production environment.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

There is currently limited empirical evidence on how land use change affects forest cover in selected wildlife parks, making it difficult for researchers and practitioners to draw reliable, context-appropriate conclusions. This study addresses that gap through a structured investigation.

1.3 Objectives of the Study

To determine the effect of land use change on forest cover of selected wildlife parks.
To evaluate the extent to which land use change influences forest cover.
To identify the conditions under which land use change has the greatest effect on forest cover.
To recommend practices based on the observed relationship between land use change and forest cover.

1.4 Research Questions

What is the effect of land use change on forest cover of selected wildlife parks?
To what extent does land use change influence forest cover?
Under what conditions does land use change have the greatest effect on forest cover?
What practices can be recommended based on this relationship?

1.5 Significance of the Study

This study is significant to researchers and practitioners working with selected wildlife parks, offering evidence on how land use change relates to forest cover. It also contributes to the broader literature in forestry and wildlife by documenting findings specific to the conditions under which the study was conducted.

1.6 Scope of the Study

The study is limited to examining Land Use Change and its relationship with forest cover in selected wildlife parks, reflecting a BSc-level scope of analysis; conclusions are drawn strictly from the conditions and samples used in the study.
