For more than 30 years, the Gurney's Pitta, a colourful ground-living bird of the rain forest, was believed to be extinct. Following its rediscovery in the lowland forests around Khao Nor Chuchi in 1986, a Non-Hunting Area was declared in 1987. Prinz Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who is a serious bird lover and close to the Royal Family of Thailand, might have played an influential role in this declaration. As most of the Gurney's Pitta lived outside the established Non-Hunting Area, in lowland forests protected as National Reserve Forest, the Royal Forestry Department moved rapidly to put in place protected area staff with a headquarters and guard posts. Since 1989 the Centre for Conservation Biology at Mahidol University in Bangkok is supporting the efforts to protect this unique biosphere with the Khao Nor Chuchi Lowland Forest Project. This project was financed exclusively by donations and provided infrastructure, training and provision of equipment. A nature trails network and an information centre was established and more than 200 000 seedlings of locally grown rain-forest trees have been distributed to temples, schools and villages and used for reforestation in the area. .
The area was upgraded to a Wildlife Sanctuary in 1993, but the most extensive and important area of lowland forest was excluded, because of the existence of a small and scattered rural human population in the area. From September 1995 until May 1999, conservation efforts were supported by the Danish Ministry of Environment and Energy and managed on their behalf by the Danish Ornithological Society/BirdLife Denmark. Other supporters included the International Council for Bird Preservation, World Wildlife Found-US, Children's Rainforest Network and the GEO-initiative Projekt Tropischer Regenwald-Germany. Despite the efforts of provincial and local government officials and project activities, to address the underlying economic and socio-political forces at work in the area, it has not proved possible to stem the process of forest clearance for rubber and oil palm. This continues to be the primary motivation for land-use change in Southern Thailand, sometimes backed by government incentives. Small-scale illegal logging continued in the project area and has destroyed 406 ha of the critical lowland forest in only 3 years. Efforts to reforest and prevent planting of cleared areas have not been successful. Since 1992, the population of Gurney's Pitta has declined from ca 21 pairs to 10-12 pairs.
The Centre for Conservation Biology at Mahidol University in Bangkok, the Bird Conservation Society of Thailand, and BirdLife International currently support monthly monitoring visits and a three-monthly review of encroachment. New wooden walkways have been added to the nature trails network, making the area around the "Blue Lakes" easier accessible to visitors, who arrive on daytrips from Krabi during the dry season. Most tour operators bring their picnic food with them from Krabi, leaving the local population with little chance to earn a living from the increasing number of visitors. Local enterprises, who offered basic accommodation in the village near the headquarters closed down, as the income from the few overnight visitors was not sufficient to maintain the bungalows.
