Terrestrial Protected Areas
Terrestrial Protected Areas are specific regions on land designated by governments or organizations to conserve natural environments, wildlife, and biodiversity. These areas are managed to prevent harmful activities like logging, mining, and development, ensuring ecosystems remain healthy and resilient. Examples include national parks, wildlife reserves, and nature sanctuaries. They play a crucial role in protecting plant and animal species, maintaining ecological balance, and providing opportunities for recreation and education. By preserving these areas, we help sustain the planet’s natural heritage for current and future generations.
