QUÉ SIGNIFICA WILDERNESS EN INGLÉS
Desierto
La naturaleza silvestre es un medio natural en la Tierra que no ha sido modificado significativamente por la actividad humana civilizada. También puede definirse como: "Las áreas naturales silvestres más intactas e inalteradas que quedan en nuestro planeta, esos últimos lugares verdaderamente salvajes que los humanos no controlan y no han desarrollado con carreteras, tuberías u otras infraestructuras industriales". Las áreas silvestres se pueden encontrar en conservas, fincas, granjas, conservas, ranchos, bosques nacionales, parques nacionales e incluso en áreas urbanas a lo largo de los ríos, de las quebradas o de otras áreas subdesarrolladas. Estas áreas se consideran importantes para la supervivencia de ciertas especies, biodiversidad, estudios ecológicos, conservación, soledad y recreación. El desierto es muy valorado por razones culturales, espirituales, morales y estéticas. Algunos escritores de la naturaleza creen que las áreas silvestres son vitales para el espíritu humano y la creatividad. También pueden preservar rasgos genéticos históricos y proporcionar hábitat para la flora y la fauna silvestres que pueden ser difíciles de recrear en parques zoológicos, arboretos o laboratorios. La palabra desierto deriva de la noción de "salvajismo", es decir, aquello que no está controlado por los humanos.
