dc.description The livelihoods of most people in developing countries depend on direct utilization of natural resources surrounding them. Sometimes circumstances arise be it natural or of their own making that impact negatively or positively on the level of the natural resources availability. Under such circumstances, human beings, try to device means of coping with the change. It is important to learn and document how different communities cope with changing environment so that appropriate policies may be formulated. The underlying hypothesis is that in a geographical area consisting of varying potentials, people would naturally tend to exploit first, areas where they will gain more productivity with minimum investment. Then they would move towards the marginal areas with delicate environmental balance as resources become depleted in the formally high potential areas. This phenomenon is exami-ned in the Pare-Usambara area of northeastern Tanzania where highlands are highly endowed with natural resources and are surrounded by marginally endowed lowlands on the west
