ABSTRACT
Restoration of food sources, salt-lick and water sources for wildlifes according to the royal initiative of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej the Great is built in a deep forest area, which is carried out according to the aforementioned royal initiative. It’s a challenge for practitioners because if only labor is used to transport the material into operation It requires a lot of manpower and takes a long time, which means a high budget but one technique is the use of aircraft. especially the helicopter to transport materials to deliver to the target area in the deep forest area that has been analyzed as a strategic point of solving the problem by allowing the staff to wait for the said material to be used to make artificial salt-lick and water sources in that area. This is the first time in Thailand. which took place during 27 - 29 July and 2 - 3 December 2020 at Khao Chamao - Khao Wong National Park, Rayong Province, with cooperation from various sectors until it succeeded as a model for other areas.
