Abstract
The study has explored the adoption of indigenous knowledge systems of local populations living at the margins ofprotected areas to promote community conservation education. It assessed the ethno-ecology and ethno-biologyknowledge of valuable wild and cultivated plant species by local people inhabiting the ‘support zone’ of the CrossRiver National Park, South-Eastern Nigeria. It explored paradigms for the successful convergence of ‘insiders’local knowledge with the ‘outsiders’ professional/ scientific knowledge as tools for promoting community basedconservation education and achieving nature conservation objectives. Participatory research methodologies areadopted in eliciting information from the study communities. The results indicate a broad indigenous knowledgebase of the ecology and biology of the valuable species in the region. The implications of the convergence of thisknowledge with scientific information, to further community based nature conservation education are harmonizedfor effective conservation of natural resources.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
