Nature World

As mentioned earlier, nature world is often defined as a site where it is off limits to human impacts and to be preserved as natural as possible. However, it is extremely difficult to separate nature from human involvement or development in an urban country Therefore, in the Singapore’s context, nature emphasises the limiting of the extent of human intervention and development on nature sites. The elements of natural world can be found in Singapore’s natural reserves where they are the protected area for the conservation of Singapore’s biodiversity.

In comparison to the man-made environments like urban parks and community gardens, nature reserves are the original native environments that are biologically diverse and can support a bigger diversity of species. For instance, a five-banded gliding lizard, a slender squirrel and a Johnson’s freshwater crab can only be found in the nature reserves and not Singapore’s local parks.
