quasi-national parks
Quasi-national parks are areas that offer some of the protections and benefits of national parks but do not have the full designation. These sites may be managed by local or state governments and can include natural reserves, wildlife refuges, or protected landscapes. They often provide recreational opportunities and help preserve biodiversity.
While quasi-national parks may not have the same level of federal funding or oversight as national parks, they still play a crucial role in conservation. They can serve as important habitats for wildlife and offer spaces for outdoor activities, contributing to environmental education and community engagement.
