Indian Dzhadan Payeng alone grew 550 hectares of forest

In adolescence Indian Dzhadan Payeng began to plant in the ground not far from their homeland, the Indian state of Assam, the seeds of various trees. Shortly thereafter, he moved into the wilderness for permanent residence, and devoted his life to the cultivation of the forest. Wood is widely grown and now covers an area of ​​about 550 hectares-minute.

Payeng says that once, as a teenager, saw a sandbar after a flood a lot of dead snakes. He realized that the snake died due to the fact that they simply had nowhere to live - there are no trees that could give them shelter and protection from the heat. People urged him that these shallows can not grow anything, so instead of the forest he'd better start growing a valuable bamboo. But Payeng not abandoned its goal. He even move into their young forest ants to recreate the natural balance of the ecosystem.





Now it is the forest is home to birds, deer, rhinos, tigers and elephants. Interestingly, the Indian authorities were unaware of the existence of a new forest until the year 2008.
