wetland preserve
Guarded boggy area
A wetland preserve is a protected area of land where marshes, swamps, bogs, or other water-saturated ecosystems are maintained in their natural state.
These preserves safeguard habitats for wildlife, filter water, and prevent flooding.
Unlike wetlands that might be drained for development, a preserve is specifically designated for conservation, often managed by government agencies or environmental organizations.
The city donated fifty acres to create a wetland preserve along the river.
