Savage Islands Nature Reserve is a Portuguese nature reserve located in the Savage Islands, a small archipelago in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean.
[2][3] In May 2016, a National Geographic Society scientific expedition prompted the extension of the marine reserve.
[4] The natural and scientific interest of this small group of islands lies not only in the seabirds, but in the unique marine biodiversity and flora.
Scientific expeditions take place on the islands every year.
The islands richest in flora are Selvagem Pequena and the islet of Fora, because there has never been any introduction of non-indigenous animals and plants.
