Special Protected Area

Mongol Daguur
The Mongolian Dagurian Strictly Protected Area is divided into two parts. The larger northern part (Chuluunkhoroot soum territory of Dornod aimag), contiguous to Russia’s Daurski Reserve, takes the rolling steppe and wet lands on the south shore of white-tinted Tari lake. The southern part of the protected area (Chuluunkhoroot, Gurvanzagal, and Dashbalbar sums) encompasses a narrow strip of the clear Ulz River and its pristine wetlands, which was classified as a protected area because of the high density of nesting white-napped cranes.The protected area was established in 1992 with the purpose of preserving a representative portion of Dagurian steppe with its characteristic flora, fauna and landscape, and creating an endangered species reserve for some of the world’s rarest birds. The area encompasses 103,016 hectares of land. In 1994, the area became part of an international reserve for some of the world’s rarest birds including several endangered species of crane. The international reserve also includes nearby protected areas in Russia and China.
