Abstract: In order of good management of protected areas, this study has been carried out to bring together data linked to spoliation of Lubero territory natural forest reserves, to consider recovery measures and to propose enhancement ecological methods for public interest works. The results reveal 78,8 % of samples have recognized the existence of these forest reserves in the area. Otherwise, progressive disappearance of these reserves has been imputed to riparian population (54,5 %) as well as to State (45,5 %). In fact, population has seemed to ignore the real mission of these areas and to consider that politics of their creation by the State would only aim of land extortion (25,2 %), the State having be sides attributed land titles to new owners of lands amputated from these forest reserves. The main cause of spoliation is no respect of clauses between State and population in terms of land area to be ceded for these reserves, that has driven population to recover progressively certain spaces and aggravated spoliation level until 96,7 % (out of 3.988 ha formerly recognized as area allotted to 11 forest reserves under review, 3.858 are yet spoliated against 130 ha of State heritage visibly conserved until this work elaboration) ; in fact, 56,2 % of samples have affirmed to benefit considerably from exploitation of these spoiled lands and 57,8% are not disposed to return their management between hands of current enjoyables.
