State

In situ conservation protects species within their natural habitat, typically through legally designated areas such as reserves or parks limiting habitat loss and other pressures.

A reserve boundary restricts logging that would otherwise fragment the habitat inside it, per Bio 3741.

A protected area's effectiveness depends on enforcement and size, not legal designation alone — a weak reserve can still fail.
