I am going to pose, without looking anything up, of course, that at least a National Park is set up for people to visit, with trails, camp grounds, and attractions.
The rest, my best guess is:
Wildlife refuge: Set up to rehab injured wildlife, and reintroduce animals to the wild.
Wildlife preserve: No human habitation, or interferance.
Wilderness area: No one owns it, no one has developed it, but it's not set aside as protected.
National Forest: Like the park, but with no pre set camping grounds, or tourist amenities.
