The protection of wildlife still suffers from serious legal gaps, although wildlife management programs are progressively emerging in different parts of the country.<\/p><p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">T<\/span>he confusion caused by some of the laws and regulations governing the use of natural resources, associated to a mostly inconsistent implementation, have brought many species on the brink of extinction. The major challenge of conservation nowadays lies in strengthening the technical capacity necessary to manage these complex land use patterns (generally at the level of rural communities), in providing administrations the means needed to ensure an effective control of extractive activities and to set up rigorous monitoring systems.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-7601\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"2\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-7601\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><div class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> National System of Protected Areas <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-minus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-plus\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-7601\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7252643 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7252643\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bebe3dc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bebe3dc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">T<\/span>he Mexican National System of Protected Areas (SINAP) was created in 1983 and ratified in 1996 by the &#8220;Ley General de Equilibrio Ecol\u00f3gico y Protecci\u00f3n al Ambiente&#8221; (Law of the Environment), an instrument designed to place the country&#8217;s most biodiverse and ecologically important areas under legal protection status.

However, in spite of significant progress and achievements, remaining deficiencies, such as an insufficient budget, weak interinstitutional coordination and a very limited operational, infrastructure and human resource capacity, have led to repeated conflicts between development and nature conservation programs in and around protected areas.<\/p><p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">I<\/span>n order to achieve the world standard of 10% of national territory under legal protection, CONANP&#8217;s principal goals is to secure the protection of approximately 25 million hectares of land by the year 2006.
