Question

Difference between national parks, biosphere reserves, wild life sancturies, tiger reserve

Answer 1

wildlife sanctuaries are relatively smaller in size and are normally species-oriented. They focus on the conservation of a particular species of plant or animal.

National Parks have more or less the same size as Sanctuaries, but focus on the conservation of the habitat of one or two species.

Biosphere Reserves are much larger in size and encompass a whole ecosystem. They are not specifically oriented to one or more species, but to the whole ecosystem. They may also overlap other protected areas.
