A wildlife reserve is a protected area designated for the conservation of wildlife and their habitats. These reserves aim to provide a safe environment for various species, allowing them to thrive without the pressures of hunting, habitat destruction, or human interference. Wildlife reserves can vary in size and may include forests, wetlands, grasslands, and other ecosystems. Visitors to a wildlife reserve can often observe animals in their natural habitats, promoting awareness and appreciation for biodiversity. Many reserves also engage in research and education efforts to support conservation initiatives and protect endangered species, such as the African elephant or Bengal tiger.
