There are seven areas that are being protected for conservation at the state level in the vast Department of Santa Cruz, Bolivia.


These areas are considered of importance at the state (departmental) level and are created by means of a State Government ordinance which must be backed and justified by technical and scientific research. These protected areas are a part of the SDAP (Sistema Departamental de Áreas Protegidas, or Departmental (State) System of Protected Areas). They are managed by the DIAP (Dirección de Áreas Protegidas, or Protected Areas Management Office) in coordination with the Municipal Governments of the areas in which they are located.
