conservation zones
Designated wildlife sanctuaries
Conservation zones are designated areas where human activity is restricted to protect natural resources, wildlife, or ecosystems.
They range from marine reserves prohibiting fishing to land areas limiting development or logging.
The coral reef lies within a conservation zone where anchoring is prohibited.
Regulations vary widely—some zones ban all extraction while others permit sustainable use.
