Stewardship areas

25: Management of stewardship areas

You could also call this:

“Protecting special places and their natural and historic treasures”

When you are in charge of a stewardship area, you must manage it so that its natural and historic resources are protected. This means you have to take care of the area’s special features, like its plants, animals, and important historical sites. You must protect these resources so they are safe for the future.
