Suitable caves have been human habitats in the past, or been used as stores. Active caves are conduits taking water from the hills to their resurgences (springs) so some provide water supplies.

Nowaday caves are visitid for recreation, scientific study or as tourist attractions.

Biologically they offer shelter or roosts to some animals, and permanent homes to other, highly-specialised creatures.
