Dogs on nature reserves
Where dogs are allowed on Suffolk Wildlife Trust nature reserves, they must be kept on leads in order to protect wildlife and habitats as well as to ensure that all visitors can see and enjoy wildlife.
We work hard to make our reserves exceptional places for wildlife and by keeping dogs on leads and walking on paths, disturbance to wildlife is kept to a minimum.
