  • Maintaining the balance of nature means keeping up the biological equilibrium; that is the quantitative balance between living beings, animals and plants. The term should refer to an area which can be defined fairly clearly, preferably from a biological standpoint.

  • In the New Forest alone, Hampshire possesses what is potentially one of the finest mammal sanctuaries in the southern half of Britain. Hampshire as a whole contains a greater proportion of woodland, acre for acre, than any other English county except neighbouring Sussex. Since woodland is, perhaps, the most important single ecological factor controlling the incidence and abundance of mammals in Great Britain, it is not altogether surprising that Hampshire's mammals are many in number and varied in species.
