wildlife areas
Protected animal habitats
Wildlife areas are designated lands managed primarily for the conservation of wild animals and their habitats.
They may be open to hunting, fishing, birdwatching, or other outdoor activities, depending on local regulations.
The state purchased wetlands to expand its wildlife areas.
Unlike parks, the emphasis is on habitat preservation rather than recreation.
