Sacred groves (also known as ‘devarakadu', 'bhoothabana', 'kanu' or 'pavitra vana') are forests devoted to certain deities (daiva). Those devoted to the serpent deity are known as serpent groves or 'nagabana'. They support the biodiversity of plants, mammals, birds, worms, reptiles and sources of water.
