Protecting nature. In Kazakhstan there are many
different animals, birds and plants. But
some species are in danger. The country
has seven important nature reserves. These
reserves are working hard to save the
country's endangered species.
If you travel 25 km to the east of
Almaty, you will find the beautiful Almaty
Nature Reserve. This reserve covers an
area of 73.300 hectares and it contains 137
different species of plants, 39 species of
animals and 200 species of birds.
Endangered species at Almaty include the
golden eagle, the Turkestan lynx, the snow
leopard, the ibex and the red bear.
A large part of the reverse is closed
to the public. This helps to protect the
wildlife. It is possible to get special
permission to visit.
As well as the birds, animals and
plants, the reserve has other attractions,
More energetic visitors enjoy climbing
Mount Talgar, which is 4.973 m high.
Others visit the singing sand dunes. These
dunes are 150 m high and they make a very
strange noise when you walk over them.
