I really do not understand the question but if i must answer i will say, A land that had records of missing people, mysterious deaths, extremely large, aggressive wild species and almost inaccessible I don't see any reason why i should be talking about it not being forbidden unless if the issues i pointed out are properly addressed.

If Zona is made unforbidden and given access to all, certainly there will be problem. Poachers will then begin to hunt for the bigger animals. Scientists will begin to rush into it to study it's biological factors. In fact, technically, there will be a scramble and partition for Zona. It will lose it's heritage.

I also agree with you. Moreso, if Zona were to be a free land, many would try to abuse it's benefits.

Zona should definitely remain forbidden with restrictions on entering it.

Zona, in my opinion, should remain prohibited because of its strange and undiscoverable features.

I think only the government can unforbid Zona. I do not want that to happen. Zona is better hidden and forbidden.

I don't want Zona to be explored by humans. They'd destroy the place, and Zona has thrived because no one knows about it.

It's not a place I would suggest to become u forbidden seeing as they had to encounter a lot of animals and valuable resources.

Going by the book, I think it's best for Zona fo remain forbidden (if it were to be a real place) in other to preserve the life of the habitat. Realistically speaking, explorations has done the world more harm than good, it has exposed and exploited critical ecosystems, leading to the extinction of many exotic plants and animals.

Even though i would love to go to Zona, it should remain unforbidden for the preservation of the flora and fauna. The wild animals and exotic wild plants made Zona have a comparative advantage over other Zones. Unforbidding Zona would mean opening it up to anthropogenic activities which would lead to the destruction of the ecosystem. Only the government has the right to such decision but definitely it will not be in the interest of Zona. It would be lovely to see Zona as a global zoo with the types of animals located therein.

I still feel it's a little too early to unforbid Zona because it still has a lot of dangers, ranging from wild plants to wild animals and special resources available in Zona.

"Zona" was like a secret land that people weren't supposed to go to because it was very mysterious and dangerous. People talked about it in stories and wondered about it, but it was hard to reach or risky because of bad weather, tough terrain, or possible dangers inside. "Forbidden" means it was a no-go zone, maybe because going there was risky and unknown.
