Forest Preserve

A forest preserve is a protected area of land designated to conserve natural forests, wildlife, and ecological health. It limits development and human activities to preserve the habitat, biodiversity, and scenic beauty. These areas are intended for conservation, recreation, and education, allowing people to enjoy nature responsibly while ensuring the preservation of ecosystems for future generations. Forest preserves play a vital role in maintaining environmental balance, protecting endangered species, and providing natural spaces for outdoor activities.
