Private natural heritage reserve (Brazil)
A private natural heritage reserve is a type of preservation area in Brazil.
The land is owned privately and may be used for research, education, eco-tourism and recreation.
However, this use must be compatible with the goals of preserving the environment and maintaining biodiversity.
Although the private reserves have been criticized, they are a valuable complement to publicly owned reserves.
