Sacred groves
Explanation:
There are two types of species conservation on the basis of their conservation habitats. These are: in situ conservation and ex-situ conservation. When species are conserved in their actual or natural habitats then it is called in situ conservation. Examples are national parks, sacred grooves, wildlife sanctuaries, etc. On the other hand, ex-situ conservation includes the conservation of species outside their natural habitats and in man-made conditions that are similar to the natural habitat of species. Examples are zoological parks, cryopreservation, tissue culture, etc.
