The Aral Sea National Park, under the Ministry of Ecology, Environmental Protection and Climate Change, continues to see a steady rise in the region’s fauna, both animals and birds.
This is largely the result of systematic, disciplined environmental protection efforts, the ministry notes. Regular inspections, scientific monitoring and preventive measures carried out by park inspectors and researchers have created a safe and stable environment for wildlife.
Particular attention is given to the winter season. To support wild animals and birds during the colder months, a range of biotechnical measures is implemented. These include the installation of feeding stations, construction of artificial nests and shelters, cleaning of water sources and supplementary feeding. Such efforts help wildlife survive harsh winters and promote natural reproduction.
Conservation efforts show measurable results
As a result of these ongoing initiatives, the Aral Sea National Park is now home to 116 bird species, 17 species of mammals and 15 species of reptiles. This reflects the increasing ecological value of the park and its success in restoring biodiversity.
The Aral Sea National Park remains one of the country’s key sites for preserving natural heritage and protecting rare and endangered species. These achievements are made possible through collaboration between park staff and environmental organisations, as well as the application of modern approaches to nature conservation.
Kursiv also reports that Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are launching a joint project to plant saxaul trees across the dried-up Aral Sea bed in the border region.
