Over the last three decades, the number of species has been decreasing due to infrastructure developments- roads, hydropower’s. Reportedly, 277 species of plants 24 species of mammals and 37 species of birds were recorded in 2003 has come down to 244 species of plants, 20 species of mammals and 32 species of birds only in the present study. It has led mis-balance between biodiversity conservation and livelihood strategy. The present paper tries to discuss on overview of plant and animal diversity between 2003-2012, common relationship between bio-diversity resources and their implication in the livelihood, conservation issues and their threats. The findings of the work are based on the fieldwork carried out field survey between 2003 and 2012. Key words: Biodiversity, development interventions, plant species, mammals and agriculture. Introduction Biological Diversity in Nepal is closely linked to livelihoods of many people and their economic development, and touches upon agricultural productivity and sustainability, human health and nutrition, indigenous knowledge, gender equity, building materials, climate, water resources and aesthetic and cultural well being of the society (MOFSC, 2002). Therefore, in addition to terrestrial biodiversity, it also covers marine and other aquatic biodiversity as well. As such, biodiversity means richness and variety of living things in the world as a whole or any location within it.
