P
rotected areas are those in which human occupation or at least the exploitation of resources is
limited. There are several kinds of protected areas, which vary by level of protection depending
on the enabling and regulations of the country. The term “protected area” also includes Marine
Protected Areas, the boundaries of which will include some area of ocean. The Wild Life (Protection)
Act, 1972 defines protected areas as Sanctuaries, National Parks, Tiger Reserves, Conservation
Reserves and Community Reserves.

i
 National Park:

geomorphological, or zoological association or importance, needed for the purpose of
protecting & propagating or developing wildlife therein or its environment. A National Park is
the highest level of protection that can be given to an area under the Wild Life (Protection), Act,
1972.

iv
 Wildlife Sanctuary:
An area having adequate ecological, faunal, floral, geomorphological, natural or zoological
significance, notified by the State/Central Government for the purpose of protecting,
