The Prosa State Park (Portuguese: Parque Estadual do Prosa), formerly the Parque dos Poderes, is an urban state park in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
It protects a remnant of cerrado vegetation, and is home to a wildlife rehabilitation center.
Location
The Prosa State Park is within the urban perimeter of the municipality of Campo Grande, capital of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul.
It has an area of 135.26 hectares (334.2 acres).
It is surrounded by a buffer zone in which there are restrictions on land use.
History
The area that would become the park was defined as the Parque dos Poderes Ecological Reserve in 1981.
It was upgraded to become the Prosa State Park by decree 10.783/2002 of 21 May 2002.
Its objectives are to preserve samples of the city's last remnants of cerrado ecosystems, flora and fauna, to protect the sources of the Córrego Prosa and the landscape and cultural heritage of the region, and to support scientific research, environmental education, recreation and tourism in contact with nature.
The Management Plan was published in December 2011.
