Conservation biologists and ecologists have always focused on conserving pristine large green habitats. Smaller green spaces have been ignored for a long time. It is only recently because of human disturbance, they have begun focusing on fragmented habitats and how they can be connected to achieve the larger goal of conserving biodiversity and the ecosystem services they provision. Urban habitats have always been neglected because it was believed that the cities depended on services that forests and other large green spaces provisioned and hence conserving them was critical even for the human well-being. It is only lately that the importance of green spaces within the cities has been highlighted. Although there is some attention by conservation biologists, ecologists and naturalists towards urban green spaces now, they still seem biased towards large green spaces within cities, completely neglecting the small pocket green spaces such as neighbourhood parks (henceforth NPs), which also provision various ecosystem services. With rapid development, green spaces within cities have been sacrificed and it is only the large spaces that get protection through protests by citizenry, naturalists, ecologists and other stakeholders, while the small green spaces are put to alternative use without being noticed.
