Mai Pokhari
Mai Pokhari is a wetland in the Ilam District of Nepal that was designated a Ramsar site in October 2008. It covers 90 ha (220 acres) and is located at an altitude of 2,100 m (6,900 ft). Invasion of exotic Japanese pine in the watershed and gold fish has adversely affected the indigenous floral and faunal species, especially birds and amphibians.[1]
