Lumbering, also known as logging, is a very important activity in Liberia. Liberia is a country in West Africa with abundant forests covering over 45% of its land area. The country's forest resources are a vital source of livelihood and income for many Liberians, as well as a key contributor to the country's economy. The forests of Liberia are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species, some of which are unique to the region. However, unsustainable logging practices have led to deforestation and environmental degradation in the country. The Liberian government and international organizations are working to promote sustainable logging practices and protect the country's forest resources.
