A wildlife sanctuary can be anywhere, managed by anyone or any group. "Man and Biosphere Reserve" is a designation given by UNESCO.
A national park is a large area where one or several ecosystems exist and where animal species are kept for special educative and recreative interests and Wildlife sanctuary is similar to national park,but is dedicated to protect wildlife

What is the difference between geosphere and biosphere?
The Biosphere relates to all biotic organisms on earth. Ecosphere relates to all abiotic and biotic organisms on earth.
The main difference is what government (or non-government) agency manages the land and its resources. Each agency has different priorities as mandated by their organizing legislation. National parks can be wildlife sanctuaries, but a sanctuary is not necessarily a national park. A sanctuary may be set aside by government agency or private group or individual. National parks have specific legislation on the federal level and follow certain laws. The National Park Service manages U.S. national parks, which happen to be wildlife sanctuaries. Wildlife sanctuaries may be managed by a number of other agencies, state, local, federal, non-government organization, or private interests.
a zoo is a place animals are kept in cages
Biosphere refers to the entire biological system - the air, water, land, plants, and animal life in a specific area. Atmosphere is just the air.
bioshpere is living and community is not!..hehe

Ecosystem: When species interact with each otherBiosphere: All living things
A Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected forest where wild animals live without danger of human hunting/poaching. The whole area is protected by rangers and the animals that live in the sanctuary are constantly monitored. A Wildlife Safari is like a tour where one or more wildlife rangers and tourist guides take us for a trip through the jungle either in the day or night. This is different than seeing animals in the zoo because you see them in their natural habitat.
