Reserves
The natural State Reserves are made of terrestrial, fluvial, lacustrine or marine areas that include one or more fauna and/or flora species with naturalistic relevance, or that include one or more ecosystems with importance due to their biologic diversity or the conservation of the genetic resources. In the Region there are 17 State Reserves, of whom one is shared with Tuscany Region.
The regional natural Reserves, established by acts of the Regional Council, are “territories of limited range; they are designed because of their regional relevance and they are managed in order to preserve their morphological, biological, ecological, scientific and cultural features and assets”.
