IUCN category iv

Habitat/Species Management Area
Targeted habitat management1 park
IUCN Category IV is built around focused ecological management. Rather than emphasizing wilderness, a singular monument, or broad public recreation, this category is used where the central task is to maintain, conserve, restore, or manage particular species, habitats, or ecological conditions. Many Category IV areas require active intervention, sometimes on an ongoing basis, because their conservation values depend on management actions such as water-level control, grazing regimes, fire management, invasive-species removal, nest-site protection, or habitat restoration. The category is especially important for places where biodiversity goals are precise, operational, and management-intensive.
