Notes Protected Landscapes are a strong option for the conservation of biodiversity in landscapes and seascapes that are significantly human-influenced and inhabited. They often contain threatened or endemic species of flora and fauna, and are also critical areas for cultural sustenance. Recognized as Category V in the protected area categorization system of the IUCN, their existence is based on the interactions of people and nature over time.
