Proposal seeks to create Amur basin nature preserve PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 30 April 2008
ImageMongolia hopes to join Russia to create a joint nature preserve in eastern Mongolia’s Amur basin. 

Working with the World Wildlife Federation and the Russian-Mongolian environmental committee, the group will seek to save both the area’s wildlife and the Onon River. 

Meeting in Ulaanbaatar, representatives of environmental groups from Mongolia and Russia agreed that the preserve must include special areas allowing for the free migration of the Mongolian antelope.  

In an unusual move, the group considered the necessity of temporarily removing border fences in this region to assure the movement of the antelope 

Additionally, an initiative for expanding the existing Daurskiy reserve was recommended. Group members noted that the reserve is a habitat for species that are unique to the region.
