Introduction

Since 1600, about 150 species of animals have become extinct on our planet, more than half in the last 50 years. In the 20th century it became obvious that it was necessary to take special measures to rescue an animal and flora. There is no longer any need to prove to anyone how destructively modern man can influence wildlife. Fewer and fewer untouched corners of nature remain. Every year the Red Book is replenished with endangered representatives of the animal and plant world.

The basis of territorial nature conservation in Russia is the system of specially protected natural areas (SPNA). The status of protected areas is currently being determined Federal Law"On Specially Protected Natural Areas", adopted State Duma February 15, 1995 According to the Law “Specially protected natural areas are areas of land, water surface and air space above them, where natural complexes and objects are located that have their own environmental, scientific, cultural, aesthetic, recreational and health value, which are withdrawn by decisions public authorities in whole or in part from economic use and for whom a special protection regime has been established."

In this course work we will consider the main protected areas of Russia and the Krasnoyarsk Territory, the features of their situation. Attention is focused on nature reserves and national parks as the basis of Russia's tourism resource framework.

The purpose of the work is to: consider the landscape of protected areas from the point of view of tourism and analyze it in 4 aspects: physical-geographical, ethno-historical, economic-geographical, aesthetic.

Objective: study the basic concepts of specially protected natural areas and study them in accordance with natural, cultural, historical and economic conditions.

As well as planning and organizing ecological tourism and recreation areas in the national park, assessing the aesthetic merits of landscapes is an integral part of the work.

Chapter 1. Specially protected natural areas (SPNA)

Russia inherited quite a lot from the USSR complex system categories of protected areas, which was formed evolutionarily. The Law distinguishes the following categories:

state natural reserves, including biosphere reserves;

National parks;

natural parks;

state nature reserves;

natural monuments;

dendrological parks and botanical gardens;

medical and recreational areas and resorts.

Specially protected natural areas may have federal, regional and local significance. The territories of nature reserves and national parks belong to protected areas of federal significance. The territories of state reserves, natural monuments, dendrological parks and botanical gardens, medical and recreational areas and resorts can be classified as either protected areas of federal or regional significance. Natural parks have the status of protected areas of regional significance, and medical and recreational areas can be declared protected areas of local importance.

The decision to organize a protected area federal significance adopted by the Government of the Russian Federation, regional authorities - executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, these are the administrations of territories, regions, autonomous districts, the Government of the republics within the Russian Federation. Specially protected areas of local significance are formed by decisions of local government bodies, for example, district administrations.

1.1. Reserves

According to Russian legislation, reserves are environmental, research, environmental and educational institutions aimed at preserving and studying the natural course natural processes and phenomena, the genetic fund of flora and fauna, individual species and communities of plants and animals, typical and unique ecological systems.

Reserves represent protected areas of the high rank. Protected natural complexes and objects (land, water, subsoil, plant and animal world). Traditionally and according to Russian legislation, these are territories with a strict protection regime; constant year-round monitoring of life is carried out in them wildlife. The main significance of nature reserves is to serve as standards of nature, to be a place for understanding the course of natural processes not disturbed by humans, characteristic of the landscapes of a certain geographical region. An equally important aspect of the activities of nature reserves, determined by law, is scientific work. This fundamentally distinguishes them from other forms of specially protected areas. Within the boundaries of the reserves, long-term scientific research is carried out under the unified program “Chronicle of Nature”. These studies provide the basis for environmental monitoring and control natural environment. An essential part of the activities of modern reserves is environmental education of the population.

The federal system of reserves was formed over 80 years and currently includes 139 reserves with a total area of ​​more than 34 million hectares, which is 1.56% of the total area of ​​Russia. The system of Russian state nature reserves is recognized throughout the world. Of the Russian reserves, 22 have international status biosphere reserves (they were issued relevant UNESCO certificates).

The creation of reserves is determined by the level of anthropogenic transformation of ecosystems. With a low level, characteristic mainly of the northern and taiga regions, it is easy to organize large nature reserves. Here, without any problems, it was possible to find new areas to create extensive nature reserves. It is characteristic that the largest nature reserve in the country - the Great Arctic (4.2 million hectares) - is located on the deserted shores and islands of the Arctic. In general, the areas of reserves are growing from the southwest to the northeast, with the exception of only a few large reserves in the Caucasus, but they also protect mainly sparsely populated and relatively underutilized high-mountain forests and meadows.

In flat, densely populated areas with productive soils, the creation of nature reserves is difficult. In such areas, the creation of high-ranking protected areas meets fierce resistance from nature users, so if protected areas are created, they are small, sometimes spot-on, in size. The situation with the protection of natural ecosystems located within the steppe zone, where these ecosystems are most intensively transformed, is especially difficult. It is here that the few existing reserves are extremely small in area, and in the Siberian part of this zone there are none at all. At the same time, the largest reserves are located either in the little-transformed Arctic and Siberian taiga, or in mountain forest areas.

The oldest existing reserve in Russia - Barguzinsky - was created in 1916. The first boom in the creation of reserves occurred in the 30s. In 1951 and 1961. There were two waves of closure of nature reserves and a significant reduction in the areas of the preserved ones. A new, very powerful wave of creation of nature reserves was observed already in the 90s. Such a high intensity of creation of new reserves revealed a number of circumstances of a turning point. Firstly, this is the redistribution of power from the center to local authorities - the environmental community easily achieved success at the local level, appealing to the regional prestige of local power elites in regions where, until recently, there were no nature reserves. Secondly, the sharp increase in the activity of “green” movements in the late 80s and early 90s had an impact. And finally, thirdly, ambiguity in matters of land ownership had a positive effect. Until the land gained actual ownership or returned entirely to government officials, producers' resistance to conservation efforts by environmentalists was weakened. Later, there will not be the same favorable period under any development scenario for Russia.

1.2. National parks

National parks, unlike nature reserves, along with the tasks of protecting and studying natural complexes, must provide tourism and recreation for citizens. On their territory, land plots of other users and owners may be preserved with the national park’s preemptive right to purchase such land. As of January 1, 1998, there were 32 natural national parks in Russia with a total area of ​​6.7 million hectares. Currently, there are 41 national park, the total area of ​​which is more than 70,000 km².

National natural parks are a new form of territory protection for Russia. The first two (Losiny Ostrov and Sochinsky) were created only in 1983, 12 out of 32 - in the last five years. Implementation of legal status national parks is still facing serious opposition from business entities whose activities are limited by this status. For now this form cannot be considered effective method territorial protection of wildlife, however, public attention and trends known from other countries give enough hope for the gradual realization of the potential of this form of protection of natural complexes.

Natural park is a protected extensive area of ​​natural or cultural landscape; used for: recreational (for example, organized tourism), environmental, educational and other purposes. Unlike nature reserves, reserves and some other protected areas, the protection regime in natural parks is the least strict.

There are natural parks in Russia, Finland, Austria, Germany, Indonesia, Ukraine and other countries.

In Russia, natural parks are under the jurisdiction of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Territories natural parks are located on lands provided to them for indefinite (permanent) use, in some cases - on lands of other users, as well as owners.

On the territory of Russia there are such natural parks as

"Nalychevo" in Kamchatka,

“Bird Harbor” is the only one in Russia natural Park located in on the territory large city(Omsk).

"Shcherbakovsky", located in the Kamyshinsky district of the Volgograd region.

1.3. Wildlife sanctuaries

A reserve is a protected natural area in which (unlike reserves) not the entire natural complex is protected, but some of its parts: only plants, only animals, or their individual species, or individual historical, memorial or geological objects.

Natural reserves differ from previous categories in that their lands may or may not be alienated from owners and users; they can be of both federal and local subordination. Among federal reserves, zoological ones play the greatest role; other forms - landscape, botanical, forest, hydrological, geological - are less common. Currently, there are 69 federal nature reserves in Russia with a total area of ​​about 170,000 square meters. km in 45 federal subjects, as well as almost 12 thousand regional reserves. Their main function is to protect the hunting fauna. Hunting is always prohibited, but very significant restrictions are often introduced on forest exploitation, construction and some other types of economic activity. The protection of these reserves is usually quite well established.

1.4. Forest and hunting farms

Among those not specified in the Law, one can point out such a category of protected areas as those of international importance - mainly as a habitat for waterfowl, which are created in terms of the country’s fulfillment of its obligations arising from membership in the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar). By Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1050 of September 13, 1994, 35 such objects were identified in the country, the area of ​​which is about 10 million hectares. These lands include not only wetland ecosystems, but also land complexes associated with them. The presence of international status and a special government decree allows us to consider this form as a significant factor in the protection of Russian ecosystems, primarily lakes and swamps.

The status of these objects is still poorly developed. The main difference between this type of protected areas and others is its complexity - in the territory of wetlands of international importance there may be nature reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, natural monuments and lands that do not have a special protection status, including those used in agriculture. In areas of nature reserves, etc. a security regime corresponding to their status is implemented. In specially not protected areas, restrictions are introduced (up to a complete ban) on types of economic activities that adversely affect the functioning of wetlands. Environmentally friendly activities are encouraged. This approach makes this form of protection potentially particularly promising, since, firstly, the number of areas where a complete ban on economic activity is possible has its limits, and secondly, in the vast territories of Russia used by outbreaks there is a combination of strict protection in the most valuable and vulnerable areas with reasonable environmental management seems to be the most effective.

1.5. Natural monument

A natural monument is a protected natural area on which a rare or remarkable object of animate or inanimate nature is located, unique in scientific, cultural, historical, memorial or aesthetic terms.

A natural monument can be a waterfall, a meteorite crater, a unique geological outcrop, a cave or, for example, a rare tree. Sometimes natural monuments include areas of significant size - forests, mountain ranges, sections of coasts and valleys. In this case, they are called tracts or protected landscapes.

Natural monuments are divided by type into botanical, geological, hydrological, hydrogeological, zoological and complex.

For most natural monuments, a reserve regime is established, but for particularly valuable natural objects, a reserve regime can be established.

The most common are natural monuments at the regional level, federal nature monuments - a total of 39 with a total area of ​​28.0 thousand hectares, regional significance - more than 9 thousand with a total area of ​​4.15 million hectares (State report on the state of protected areas for 2003) .

Obligations to ensure the protection of a natural monument are usually assumed by the owners, possessors, users and tenants of the lands on which this natural monument is located.

Declaring natural complexes and objects as natural monuments, and the territories occupied by them as natural monument territories, is permitted with the withdrawal of the land plots occupied by them from the owners, possessors and users of these plots.

In 2003, no new natural monuments of federal significance were created (they were not officially registered). In 2004, a number of monuments of regional significance were created, including 12 new natural monuments in the Republic of Adygea (October 2004). This is the first step towards creating a regional (including Krasnodar Territory) network of protected areas in the Western Caucasus. In March 2005, a new natural monument of regional significance appeared on Sakhalin - the Krasnopolsky Oreshnik. Its main goal is to preserve the territory of natural growth of the ailantholfolia or Siebold nut, listed in the Red Books Sakhalin region and the Russian Federation.

1.6. Dendrological parks and botanical gardens

Dendrological parks and botanical gardens are environmental institutions whose tasks include creating special collections of plants in order to preserve the diversity and enrichment of the flora, as well as carrying out scientific, educational and educational activities. The territories of dendrological parks and botanical gardens are intended only for the fulfillment of their direct tasks, while land plots are transferred for indefinite (permanent) use either to parks or to research or educational institutions under whose jurisdiction they are located.

Botanical gardens and dendrological parks introduce plants of natural flora, study their ecology and biology under stationary conditions, develop the scientific foundations of ornamental gardening, landscape architecture, landscaping, introduce wild plants into cultivation, protect introduced plants from pests and diseases, and also develop methods and selection and agricultural techniques for creating sustainable decorative displays, principles of organizing artificial phytocenoses and using introduced plants to optimize the technogenic environment.

Dendrological parks and botanical gardens can be of federal or regional significance and are formed accordingly by decisions of the executive bodies of state power of the Russian Federation or representative and executive bodies of state power of the relevant subjects of the Federation.

In Russia at the beginning of 2000, there were 80 botanical gardens and dendrological parks under the jurisdiction of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Main Botanical Garden of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Botanical Garden Botanical Institute named after. V.L. Komarov), departments and scientific centers of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Polar-Alpine Botanical Garden-Institute of the Kola Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Botanical Garden of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Botanical Garden of the Amur Scientific Center of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, etc.), the former Rosleskhoz (arboretum of the Caucasian branch of VNIILM, etc. ) and its territorial bodies (arboretum of the Novosibirsk forestry enterprise, dendrological park of the Kandalaksha forestry enterprise, etc.), the former Ministry of Agriculture of Russia (dendrological garden of the Novosibirsk fruit and berry station, etc.), state universities (Botanical Garden of M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University, Botanical garden of the St. Petersburg State University, Siberian Botanical Garden of the Tomsk State University, etc.), agricultural (arboretum of the Kuban Agricultural Institute, Botanical Garden of the Omsk Agricultural Institute, etc.), forestry (arboretum of the Arkhangelsk Forestry Institute, Botanical Garden of the St. Petersburg Forestry Academy, etc.) and pedagogical universities (Botanical Garden of the Kirov Pedagogical Institute, Botanical Garden of the Penza Pedagogical Institute, etc.), some other departments (Botanical Garden of Medicinal Plants of the Moscow Medical Academy named after. THEM. Sechenov, Kabardino-Balkarian Republican Botanical Garden of the state farm "Ornamental Crops", etc.).

Currently, botanical gardens and dendrological parks in Russia are experiencing certain difficulties, primarily due to insufficient funding. In many botanical gardens, the volume of scientific research has been reduced, collections of plants and seeds are under threat, and interaction (exchange of material, contacts of employees, etc.) between gardens has weakened.

Being located primarily in cities and suburbs, botanical gardens are exposed to the same unfavorable environmental factors as their surrounding areas: air pollution and watercourses, noise pollution, recreational overload, etc. The problem is aggravated due to the often increased sensitivity of plant collections to negative factors external influences in comparison with local vegetation.

To solve the problems of botanical gardens and dendrological parks, it is necessary, first of all, to strengthen the legislative framework. There is a need for a clearer definition of their legal status and the establishment of strict penalties for the use of the relevant territories for purposes contrary to their intended purpose. It is also necessary to take measures to improve budget financing, which would make it possible to solve acute economic problems, and use the freed up resources for the development of scientific and environmental activities.

1.7. Medical and recreational areas and resorts

The lands of medical and recreational areas and resorts are classified as specially protected natural areas and are intended for the treatment and recreation of citizens. These lands include lands with natural healing resources (deposits of mineral waters, medicinal mud, brine of estuaries and lakes), favorable climate and other natural factors and conditions that are or can be used for the prevention and treatment of human diseases. Resorts and health-improving areas may have federal, regional or local significance. A health-improving area is understood as a territory that has natural healing resources and is suitable for organizing the treatment and prevention of diseases, as well as for recreation of the population. The medical and recreational area is a specially protected natural area with a limited regime for the use of subsoil, land and other natural resources and objects. A resort is a specially protected medical and recreational area that has been developed and used for therapeutic and preventive purposes, and has natural healing resources and the buildings and structures necessary for operation, including infrastructure facilities. In order to maintain favorable sanitary and environmental conditions To organize the prevention and treatment of human diseases on the lands of medical and recreational areas and resorts, sanitary (mountain sanitary) protection districts are established in accordance with the law. Within the boundaries of medical and recreational areas and resorts, activities that can lead to deterioration in quality and exhaustion are prohibited (limited) natural resources and objects with medicinal properties. In order to preserve natural factors favorable for the organization of treatment and prevention of diseases of the population, sanitary or mountain sanitary protection districts are organized in the territories of medical and recreational areas and resorts. For medical and recreational areas and resorts, where natural healing resources belong to the subsoil (mineral waters, therapeutic mud, etc.), mountain sanitary protection districts are established. In other cases, sanitary protection districts are established.

1.5. Other protected areas

In Russian conditions, assessing the area of ​​slightly disturbed natural complexes that have restrictions on economic activity, will be incomplete if we exclude from consideration two very different categories land uses - state forestry and hunting grounds and training grounds of the Ministry of Defense.

Forest and hunting farms- These are elite natural complexes inherited from the Soviet system, intended for country holidays for high-ranking executives. These territories have always had fundamentally more high level protection, economic activities that violate the living conditions of animals were limited, and land acquisitions were not allowed. Despite the current problems of budget financing, the inertia of the special status of these territories is preserved and used by the new elite. Thus, state forestry and hunting farms may well be classified in the same group as protected areas due to their elite position, the presence of real protection and restrictions on economic activity. Yes, in conservation large mammals In the Moscow region, the Istrinskoye GLOH played a huge role; its territory avoided the trend of transformation of meadows, swamps and forests into holiday villages, which is total for the region.

Chapter 2. Protection of flora and fauna in protected areas Krasnoyarsk Territory

Krasnoyarsk Territory is a huge territory located in the East Siberian region of Russia. Geographical position Our region can be called unique in many respects. On its territory is the geographical center of Russia - Lake Vivi, located in Evenkia. The location of the center of Russia has been approved Federal service geodesy and cartography of Russia. The northernmost point of the Krasnoyarsk Territory - Cape Chelyuskin - is the extreme polar tip of Eurasia and the northernmost point of Russia and the continental parts of the planet.

There are six reserves organized on the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, three of them are biosphere, i.e. work under a special United Nations program; these are the Sayano-Shushensky and Central Siberian and Taimyr nature reserves; State nature reserves also include: Stolby and Putoransky. The most modern reserve is the Great Arctic.

In total, seven nature reserves have been created in the Krasnoyarsk Territory (Appendix No. 1), as well as the Shushensky Bor national park and the Ergaki natural park.

In total, three state nature reserves of federal significance and 27 state nature reserves of regional significance have been created in the region (as of May 1, 2007). It is planned to create 39 more state natural reserves.

On the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, 51 objects have the status of a natural monument of regional significance.

2.1. Nature reserves of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

2.1.1. State Nature Reserve "Stolby"- one of oldest reserves in Russia - was organized in 1925 on the initiative of the residents of Krasnoyarsk to preserve the picturesque area "Stolby". The reserve is located in the vicinity of Krasnoyarsk, on the northwestern spurs of the Eastern Sayan (Kuisum Mountains), between 55 43'08" - 55 57' 27" northern latitude and 92 37’02” – 93 05’40” east longitude. The Yenisei flows along its northern border, and the Bazaikha and Mana rivers flow along its northeastern and southern borders. Area - 47.154 thousand hectares. The most picturesque part near the city is allocated as a tourist and excursion area with an area of ​​1.3 thousand hectares (2.7% of the entire protected area). Here are the majority of granite-syenite remains, the so-called “Pillars” up to 100 meters high, attracting visitors and tourists with their bizarre shapes. In order to protect the protected area from adverse impacts, a protective zone with a limited regime of environmental management, about 2 km wide along the perimeter and an area of ​​13.464 thousand hectares, was created along the perimeter of the reserve.

The purpose of the reserve: protection of the unique landscape of the Eastern Sayan, preservation of complexes typical for this natural zone, study of ecosystems and their dynamics, as well as study of the influence of anthropogenic factors.

The reserve is located at the junction of two large geographical provinces - forest-steppe and mountain taiga, which leads to a high diversity of flora and fauna. The fauna is typical of the mountain taiga of the Eastern Sayan. There are 58 species of mammals, almost half of them belong to the order of rodents. This group includes forest voles, chipmunks and squirrels. Lagomorphs are represented by the mountain hare and the pika. Predatory mammals include the wolf, fox, lynx, wolverine, sable, and brown bear. The order of artiodactyls includes deer, elk, roe deer and musk deer. There are more than 20 species of fish in the rivers, the most common of which are gudgeon, minnow, dace, ruffe, roach, grayling, perch, and pike. 4 species of amphibians and 3 species of reptiles have been registered on the territory of the reserve. There are 199 bird species, of which the most common are tits, warblers, wagtails, thrushes, woodpeckers, crossbills, nuthatch, bullfinches, lentils, bee-eaters, redstarts, and cuckoos. Easily recognizable birds include the great dove, jackdaw, magpie, black crow, jay, jay, nutcracker, and crow. Of the gallinaceae order, the hazel grouse is the most common; capercaillie and black grouse are much less common. There are a variety of birds of prey: goshawk, sparrowhawk, peregrine falcon, hobby falcon, saker falcon, osprey, merlin, kestrel, falcon. The most common owls are tawny owls: long-tailed and bearded owls, long-eared and hawk owls, and eagle owls. Many species of predators have become rare not so much due to human persecution, but due to the destruction of habitats, the impoverishment of the species and quantity of animals that serve as food sources for birds. In this territory there are species listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation: golden eagle, imperial eagle, saker falcon, peregrine falcon, osprey, black stork, eagle owl.

The flora includes 1037 species of higher vascular plants, including lycophytes - 3 species; ferns – 26 species; horsetails – 8 species; bryophytes – 260 species; gymnosperms – 6 species; angiosperms – 705 species; Most of the trees found in the region grow in the forests of the reserve: pine, fir, spruce, Siberian larch and cedar - from conifers; birch and aspen are deciduous. Large and small shrubs are common here: bird cherry, alder, rowan, hawthorn, acacia, willow, viburnum, black and red currant, etc.; grass cover is varied. The main part of the reserve's territory is represented by deciduous and pine forests and dark coniferous taiga. Forest vegetation in the Krasnoyarsk region is replaced by steppe vegetation. Of the plants listed in the Red Book of the RSFSR, the following are noted: coral blackberry, lobaria pulmonata and reticulata, pistillate hornwort, feather grass feather grass, helmeted orchis, lady's slipper and large-flowered, calypso bulbous, curly sparassis and capillary nest flower.

The main direction of the scientific research work of the reserve is the study of natural processes occurring in nature, and the identification of the interconnections of individual links in the natural chain, as well as the development of environmental measures. On the territory of the reserve and adjacent areas, work has been organized to assess the impact of atmospheric pollution on the viability of forests in the suburban area of ​​Krasnoyarsk.

2.1.2. "Sayano-Shushensky" State Biosphere Reserve located in the south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the central part of the Western Sayan, including the Sayan, Goly and partially Khemchik and Kantegir ranges, within the boundaries of the Shushensky and Ermakovsky districts. Area – 390.368 thousand hectares, of which 59.3% is occupied by forests, 36% by char, stone deposits and steep rocky slopes. The reserve is dominated by typical mountain landscapes. The protective zone allocated along the boundaries of the reserve, with an area of ​​106.2 thousand hectares, includes: the water area of ​​the reservoir of the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station along the eastern border of the reserve with all bays with an area of ​​12 thousand hectares; a two-kilometer strip along the right bank of the reservoir from the mouth of the river. Naked to the administrative border with the Republic of Tyva; a five-kilometer strip along the western border of the reserve in the Shushensky district.

The purpose of the reserve: preservation of typical and unique natural complexes of the Western Sayan, biological diversity, protection of rare animal species. This area is the only one in Russia where it is possible to preserve the snow leopard, Siberian ibex, golden eagle, osprey, as well as populations of plants listed in the Red Book. The reserve was awarded biosphere status in February 1985.

The territory is located at the junction of several floristic regions, so its flora is mixed. There are many endemic and relict plants here. The Sayan-Altai endemics (the majority of them here) include Altai bluegrass, Krylov's wheatgrass, Altai larkspur, Borodin catchment; Angara-Sayan endemics - Yenisei and Baikal anemones; Tuva-Sayan-Altai - swollen tar and Bunge lumbago. There are also many relict plants in the reserve, such as Krylov's bedstraw, fragrant woodruff, impatiens core, Far Eastern fescue, Daurian rhododendron, Baikal basilisk. Valuable species of medicinal plants grow on the territory of the reserve - maral root, golden root, etc., which were threatened with complete destruction before the creation of the reserve. Currently, the flora of the reserve includes: algae - 7 species, mushrooms - 19, lichens - 97 species, horsetails and lycophytes - 18 species, bryophytes - 321 species, ferns - 25 species, gymnosperms - 7 species, angiosperms - 867 species. Of the plants listed in the Red Book of the RSFSR, the following are noted: Indusiella Tien Shan, Lindbergia short-winged, Lobaria pulmonata, Mutinus canis, Orchis capitata, Slipper grandiflora, Siberian kandyk, two-flowered and Pasco's wrestlers, Nestflower capulata, Feather feather grass, Dendrathema fovellifolia, Fritillary Dagana and chin guard leafless.

The territory of the reserve is mountainous country, covered with dark coniferous forests of the taiga type. They are dominated by spruce, fir and cedar. A clearly defined altitudinal zone determines the diversity of vegetation types and hunting grounds. The main environment-forming significance is cedar forests, providing food resources for all representatives of the animal world living here. Due to this, many animal species form high population densities. The fauna is rich and diverse due to the mixture of faunas of Altai, Mongolia and Sayan. The reserve contains 662 species of insects, 4 species of reptiles, 212 species of birds, 52 species of mammals and 15 species of fish.

There are many rare and endangered animals listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation - Snow Leopard, forest reindeer (Altai-Sayan population), Siberian ibex, golden eagle, peregrine falcon, saker falcon, osprey, black stork, demoiselle crane, steppe kestrel, avocet, black-headed gull, imperial eagle owl, among insects, carpenter bee and common Apollo. The question of the presence of the red wolf on the territory of this reserve has not been fully clarified. The reserve serves as a reserve for valuable game species, primarily sable, the number of which in the areas adjacent to the reserve is still low. Musk deer, deer, squirrel, brown bear, hazel grouse, capercaillie, and a small number of lynx live here.

The main scientific profile of the Sayano-Shushensky Reserve is monitoring of natural phenomena and processes of the Western Sayan ecosystem in their natural state, as well as under the influence of the hydropower complex of the Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP; development of scientific foundations for nature conservation in the region.

2.1.3. "Central Siberian" State Biosphere Reserve

The “Central Siberian” State Biosphere Reserve was organized in 1985 on the territory of the Turukhansky district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and the Baykitsky district of the Evenki Autonomous Okrug with a total area of ​​972.017 thousand hectares. After work carried out in 1992 to clarify the boundaries, its area amounted to 1020.419 thousand hectares, including 595.024 thousand hectares in the Baykitsky district and 425.395 thousand hectares in the Turukhansky district. The reserve is located in the middle reaches of the river. The Yenisei is between the Podkamennaya Tunguska and Bakhta rivers and occupies the Yenisei parts of the West Siberian Plain and the Central Siberian Plateau.

Goal: protection of the reference area of ​​the middle taiga. The Yenisei section within the reserve is of great value as a spawning area for many valuable commercial fish species, as well as a wintering area for sturgeon and sterlet. This is the first reserve in Russia, which was originally designed as a biosphere. In January 1987, UNESCO included it in the international network of biosphere reserves.

The Yenisei divides the territory of the reserve into two unequal parts, representing various landscape complexes. The left bank of the Yenisei River is a gently undulating, hilly plain with gentle river valleys and wide watersheds, absolute heights of 200-250 m. This area is dominated by pine forests sandy soils. Along the rivers and on the hills there are dark coniferous forests of spruce and cedar. In depressions of the relief, vast areas are occupied by swamps and peat bogs. In the floodplain of the Yenisei there are large-grass and small-grass meadows. The right bank represents a section of the Central Siberian Plateau and has a dissected flat-topped relief with absolute heights of 300-350 m near the Yenisei and more than 500 m in the eastern part. On the right bank towards the Yenisei, the Yenisei Ridge breaks off into a tectonic ledge. The right bank is characterized by larch-cedar and larch-cedar-spruce forests, as well as birch derivatives. In general, the diversity of the relief has a positive effect on the fauna of the region.

Forests occupy almost the entire territory of the reserve (93.51%). The main forest-forming species along the left bank of the Yenisei are pine, forming pine forests, spruce, and less commonly - cedar, larch and aspen. The right bank is dominated by dark coniferous taiga - spruce, fir, cedar, larch. Of the plants listed in the Red Book of the RSFSR, calypso bulbosa, grandiflora and true slippers are found in the protected area.

The fauna is typical of the middle taiga of Siberia. The main species are sable and squirrel. Quite common are muskrat, wolverine, elk and bear. Siberian weasel, ermine, and lynx are less common. Upland game is abundant, especially hazel grouse and capercaillie, and black grouse is common, which is explained by the presence of abundant berry fields and coniferous trees. The migration routes of many waterfowl pass along the Yenisei. Anseriformes are numerous; among the ducks, wigeon, pintail, teal and tufted duck are often found. The most abundant are teal and shoveler. Among the rare species of animals listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation, osprey, peregrine falcon, golden eagle, white-tailed eagle, gyrfalcon, and black stork have been recorded migrating or nesting.

Flora: bryophytes – 153 species, lycophytes – 7 species, pteridophytes – 18, gymnosperms – 7 species, angiosperms – 679 species. Fauna: insects – 709 species, reptiles – 4 species, birds – 212 species, mammals – 52, fish – 15 species.

Scientific work - the reproduction of valuable fish species is being studied in the reserve, and work on an inventory of plants and animals continues.

2.1.4. Taimyr State Natural Biosphere Reserve

The Taimyr State Nature Reserve was created in 1979, and in 1995 it was given biosphere status. It is an environmental, research and environmental educational institution. This is one of the largest nature reserves in Russia, located in the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, on the Taimyr Peninsula - the most northward continental part of the land in the world. Therefore, the organizers of the reserve sought to cover the greatest variety of zonal natural landscapes - arctic, typical and southern tundra, as well as forest-tundra.

The territory of the reserve represents standard areas of the earth's surface, on which almost all natural areas Taimyr: arctic ("Arctic Branch"), typical ("Main Territory"), southern ("Ary-Mas" site) tundra and forest-tundra ("Lukunsky" site), as well as unique mountain tundra of the ridge. Byrranga.

The Taimyrsky Nature Reserve is the most visited nature reserve in Russia. Every year thousands of scientists from all over the world, environmentalists, tourists and fishermen visit Eastern Taimyr. What attracts them most are the fossil mammoth excavations and the musk ox population. Also, the center of the reserve, the village of Khatangu, is used as a springboard to reach the North Pole.

On the territory of the reserve there are 430 species of higher plants, 222 species of mosses and 265 species of lichens. One of the most common lichens in the tundra zone is Cladonia (reindeer moss or moss). Reindeer moss occupies vast polar territories, but is often found in dry forests located significantly south of the tundra strip. Among the plants growing on the territory of the reserve, there are those that are listed in the Red Book, arctosiberian wormwood, braya capsicum, hard sedge, Polye and Taimyr grains, oblique oysterwort, Gorodkovaya and Byrrangskaya wormwood, woolly-stamened mytillaria, Rhodiola rosea.

Countless lakes and small reservoirs cover the tundra located on permafrost with stagnant moisture. The permafrost thickness is up to 500 meters. In Ary-Masa, the southernmost part of one of the three sections of the reserve, the northernmost larches can be observed. The trees here barely reach the height of a man in several centuries.

2.1.5 Putorana Nature Reserve

The reserve was founded in 1988 to protect unique mountain-lake-taiga landscapes and rare species of flora and fauna. The Putorana Nature Reserve is located in the north of Central Siberia, on the territory of the Dudinsky and Khatanga districts of the Taimyr Autonomous Okrug and Ilimsky district of the Evenki Autonomous Okrug: its main part, the Putorana plateau, lies south of the Taimyr Peninsula and occupies most of the rectangle between the rivers Yenisei, Kheta, Kotuy and Lower Tunguska(650 km from north to south and from west to east). This is the most extreme nature reserve in Russia. The total area of ​​the reserve is 1887.3 thousand hectares.

The purpose of creating the Putorana State Nature Reserve is to preserve the most unique mountain biocenoses of the north of Central Siberia, unique flora and rare animal species, restore the historical range of the Putorana subspecies of snow sheep, as well as protect the world's largest Taimyr population of wild reindeer.

As a result of the movement of glaciers, the Putorana plateau is dissected by long flat-bottomed canyons, the height of the walls of which reaches several hundred meters, and narrow lakes, the deepest in Russia after Lake Baikal (Khantaiskoye Lake - up to 520 m deep); mountain rivers are rapids, the height of some waterfalls reaches 100 m. The highest density of waterfalls per unit area on the planet is noted on the territory of the reserve.

Of the historical and cultural objects, the most interesting are the remains of the attributes of shamanism on the ancient temples of the Tungus (Evenks) and the Dolgan chapels more than a century ago. On the territory of the Putorana Nature Reserve there are unique outcrops of columnar basalts (natural open-air mineralogical museums).

The landscape is dominated by mountain tundra and open forests. Numerous rivers and lakes. In total, there are 381 species of plants, 35 of mammals, and 140 of birds on the territory of the reserve.

In 2003, the Putorana plateau was classified as a World Cultural and Cultural Site. natural heritage UNESCO. There are very few tourists here due to the high cost and increased complexity of the routes. An excursion boat route along the lake comes directly to the border of the reserve. Lama.

2.1.6. Great Arctic State nature reserve

The Great Arctic Nature Reserve, the largest in Russia and Eurasia and the third largest in the world (4,169,222 hectares, including 1 million in the Arctic seas), was created in 1993. It is located on the Taimyr Peninsula and on the islands of the Arctic Ocean. Its shores are washed by the Kara Sea and the Laptev Sea. This is the largest nature reserve in Russia.

The purpose of creating the reserve is to preserve and study in their natural state the unique Arctic ecosystems, rare and endangered species of plants and animals of the northern coast of the Taimyr Peninsula and adjacent islands. On the islands of Severnaya Zemlya there are “maternity hospitals” for Taimyr polar bears, and herds of wild reindeer escape from midges in the coastal tundra. Preserve the nesting grounds of birds that migrate along the North Atlantic route: brant goose, sandpiper, etc. - and have the opportunity to study unique Arctic ecosystems in their natural state.

A significant part of the reserve is practically not visited by people, but in Lately routes are being developed (rafting, fishing, ethnographic tours) that will allow tourists to get to know the Arctic nature better.

The Great Arctic Reserve consists of seven cluster areas (Table 2) and two reserves: the state nature reserve of federal significance "Severozemelsky", located within the boundaries of the reserve, and the state nature reserve of regional significance "Brekhovo Islands".

The main type of vegetation in the tundra is lichens. They withstand the harsh conditions of the Arctic, painting the tundra in various colors from bright yellow to black.

The bird fauna of the Great Arctic Reserve includes 124 species, 16 of which are listed in the Red Book. Typical inhabitants of the tundra are the snowy owl and the tundra partridge. Found in the reserve rare species gulls: pink, fork-tailed and white.

The territory of the reserve also includes historical and cultural monuments associated with the names of polar research - A.F. Middendorf, F. Nansen, V.A. Rusanova, E.V. Tolya, A.V. Kolchak, etc.

2.1.7 .Tunguska Nature Reserve

The Tunguska Nature Reserve is located at the site of the fall of the Tunguska meteorite. The reserve is located in the Evenki municipal district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The total area of ​​the reserve is 296,562 hectares.

The purpose of creating the reserve is to study the unique natural complexes of Evenkia and the consequences of the global cosmic-ecological disaster.

The reserve is an environmental, research and environmental educational institution. It was created to study the consequences of a meteorite fall. The highest peak of the reserve is located on the spurs of the Lakursky ridge - 533 m above sea level. The second highest peak, Mount Farrington, is located near the site of the Tunguska phenomenon.

The territory of the reserve is a typical region of the northern East Siberian taiga, practically unaffected by local anthropogenic influences, with its characteristic landscapes and biozenoses; at the same time, the territory of the reserve is unique, as it preserves the imprints of the mysterious “Tunguska catastrophe” of June 30, 1908. On this day, in the interfluve of the Podkamennaya Tunguska and its right tributary Chuni (Southern Evenkia), 70 km northwest of the village of Vanavara, a super-powerful (10-40 megatons) explosion of a space object of unknown nature, known as " Tunguska meteorite".

Larch and pine forests are common here. As a result of the fall of the supposed meteorite, the taiga over an area of ​​more than 2 km was felled and burned, but over the last century it has completely recovered. The Evenki taiga to this day keeps the secret of one of the miracles of our century, called the Tunguska meteorite. In the animal world, elk, bear, sable, capercaillie are common, and badger and lynx are also found. Podkamennaya Tunguska is home to about 30 species of fish, most of which are valuable species.

A protective zone 2 km wide has been formed along the boundaries of the reserve, with an area of ​​20,241 hectares. The protective zone is entrusted with such tasks as improving the living conditions of the protected animals of the reserve, carrying out measures for the protection and restoration of valuable wild and rare plant species growing in protected areas, creating demonstration sites, showcases, stands and other forms of promoting the activities of reserves for the purpose of environmental education.

The following historical and cultural sites are located on the territory of the reserve:

Expedition base for the study of the "Tunguska meteorite", better known as "Kulik's Zaimka" or "Kulik's Hut";

The expedition base for the study of the Tunguska meteorite is a monument to the history and culture of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

According to the existing Regulations on Russian nature reserves, tourism is prohibited in them. In the Tunguska Nature Reserve, due to the uniqueness of the event, as an exception, limited tourist activities are allowed for the purpose of environmental education of the population, familiarization with the beautiful natural sites of the reserve, the site of the fall of the Tunguska meteorite. There are three environmental education routes. Two of them are by water, along the picturesque rivers Kimchu and Khushma, the third is on foot along the “Kulik trail” - the famous route of the discoverer of the site of the Tunguska meteorite disaster. A lot of explanatory work is carried out with tourists on routes.

2.2. National and natural parks of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

The only national park in the region, “Shushensky Bor,” was organized in 1995 and is located in the Shushensky district on an area of ​​39.2 thousand hectares. The park includes part of the picturesque places of the memorial complex “Siberian exile of V.I. Lenin": Hut, Crane Hill, Sand Hill and others. Here, areas of landscapes characteristic of the southern regions of Central Siberia, which are currently experiencing significant anthropogenic pressure, have been taken under protection.

In the national park "Shushensky Bor" there is an interschool forestry enterprise, consisting of three school forestries: "Bee", "Ant", "Crane". School forestries took under their care an arboretum with an area of ​​1.8 hectares, which contains 162 species of trees and shrubs, of which 22 species were introduced from other regions of the country. The results of many years of work by school forestries included recommendations on the use of trees and shrubs in landscaping settlements south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

From the first days of its existence, the national park has been developing tourism activities. As part of the overview information when moving along the route, you can get acquainted with archaeological monuments of the history of human exploration of the Yenisei valley in the bronze and iron ages- Nacherkina Hill. The remains of the defensive structure of the Kyrgyz state have been preserved - the Omaitura fortress and the remains of the Sayan fort - the first Russian settlement in the upper reaches of the Yenisei (1718)

Employees of the national park, together with the Sayano-Shushensky Nature Reserve and representatives of public organizations, annually take an active part in the “March of the Parks” event.

In the period until 2005, the “Scheme for the development and placement of specially protected natural areas in the Krasnoyarsk Territory” (1998) provides for the organization of new natural parks, both federal - the Kanskoye Belogorye National Park to preserve the unique natural complex of the highlands of the Eastern Sayan in the Sayan region, and of regional significance - the Symsky natural park for the preservation of a unique natural complex, not changed by human activity, in the Sym river basin of the Yenisei region.

Ergaki is the name of a natural park located in the south of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The park is named after the ridge of the same name, which by the 1990s had become very popular among tourists, artists, and the local population. In addition to the Ergaki ridge, the park covers part or all of the Kulumys, Oysky, Aradansky, Metugul-Taiga, and Kedransky mountain ranges. The basins of the largest rivers in the park are Us, Kebezh, Oya, Taigish, Kazyrsuk.

Ergaki is a mountain node, a ridge in the Western Sayan. Located at the source of the rivers Bolshoy Kebezh, Bolshoy Klyuch, Taigish, Upper Buiba, Srednyaya Buiba and Nizhnyaya Buiba.

2.3. Natural reserves of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

The state ecological-ethnographic reserve of republican significance “Eloguysky” with an area of ​​747.6 thousand hectares is located on the territory of the Turukhansky district in the northern part of the Sym-Dubchesk mid-taiga upland in the river basin. Elogui, was organized by Order of the Main Hunt of the RSFSR No. 73 of March 10, 1987.

This reserve was created without a limitation period in order to protect the ecosystems of the middle taiga and maintain the ecological balance in the river basin. Yelogui, to preserve the cultural heritage and habitat of the indigenous peoples of the North. It is an integral part of the biosphere site of the Central Siberian Nature Reserve and is subordinate to it.

The main area of ​​the reserve is occupied by larch-cedar and larch-cedar-spruce middle taiga forests; dark coniferous taiga and pine forests. The fauna is typical for the middle taiga and is represented by such species as sable, squirrel, weasel, wolf, elk, wood grouse, hazel grouse and others. The fauna includes 350 species of vertebrates. Species included in the Red Book of the Russian Federation are noted in this territory - peregrine falcon, osprey, golden eagle, white-tailed eagle and gyrfalcon.

State reserves of regional significance occupy an area of ​​1076.52 thousand hectares, located in the territories of 25 administrative districts of the region in various natural and climatic zones.

The state nature reserves “Arga”, “Solgonsky Ridge” and “Sisimsky” are complex in profile, the rest are zoological.

Most reserves are aimed at preserving, restoring and reproducing valuable hunting and commercial species of wild animals along with their habitat. The Bolshemurtinsky, Talsko-Garevsky, and Krasnoturansky Bor nature reserves are engaged in the protection of Siberian roe deer in places of mass concentrations on migration routes and wintering grounds, as well as pine forest game.

The territories of many reserves are inhabited by animals listed in the Red Books of the Russian Federation, for example, peregrine falcon (Bolshe-Kemchugsky, Malo-Kemchugsky and Prichulymsky reserves), osprey (Ubeysko-Salbinsky, Taibinsky, B-Kemchugsky and Sisimsky reserves), white-tailed eagle (reserves "Arga" and Berezovsky), saker falcon (B-Kemchugsky, Sisimsky). Sightings of the black stork have been recorded in the Arga, Solgonsky Ridge, Prichulymsky and Taibinsky nature reserves; There is reliable information about the presence of the gray crane in the Taibinsky and Bolshemurtinsky reserves during the nesting period.

In the Krasnoturansky Bor reserve there is a colony unique for the region gray herons numbering about 100 breeding pairs.

A complete list of state natural reserves of regional significance operating in the Krasnoyarsk Territory is given in Appendix No. 2.

2.4. Natural monuments of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

On the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, 51 objects were registered (as of May 1, 2007), having the status of natural monuments of regional significance with a total area of ​​19.12 thousand hectares. Let's name a few: Chinzhebsky waterfall - a unique hydrogeological object of scientific, cultural and educational value, located in the southwestern part of the Eastern Sayan, in the interfluve of the Shinda and Nyrda rivers; The natural monument “Snyt relict” is located in the river basin. Maly Kebezh, in its lower reaches, was created with the aim of preserving the isolated location of the nemoral flora - the European honeysuckle and is the only place where it grows in natural conditions on the right bank of the Yenisei, this is the easternmost point of the range, isolated at a distance of 300 km; lake Tiberkul is a unique and picturesque mountain lake located on the southern slope of the Eastern Sayan ridge, in the right bank part of the river basin. Kazyr; The pine forest in the river basin has been declared a natural monument. Baikalikha is the northernmost pine forest in Russia. Among the natural monuments of the region there are many picturesque caves (Lysanskaya, Bolshaya Oreshnaya, Badzheiskaya, Karaulnaya, Kubinskaya, Mayskaya, etc.).

2.5. Resorts and health-improving areas of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

On the territory of the region there is one federal resort and 6 resorts and health-improving areas of regional significance (Appendix No. 3).

All objects, except for the Krasnozavodsky sanatorium (Krasnozavodsky Holiday House is located in the Bogotolsky district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, on the left bank of the Chulym River, in a picturesque pine forest, does not have mineral and medicinal waters), have deposits of natural medicinal waters and mud, which are used in for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes. The problems of health-improving areas are associated with their spontaneous development and undeveloped infrastructure, as well as high recreational loads.

Conclusion

In general, it can be noted that the system of intact natural areas in Russia seems to be quite developed and relatively flexible. Moreover, the density of the network of these territories and the flexibility of the security system have been growing in recent years. Although this system (like the entire country as a whole) is currently experiencing significant economic difficulties, the forecast for its development is generally favorable. The main disadvantage of Russia's network of protected areas is its unevenness and, especially, its low density in the steppe zone, which is the most susceptible to anthropogenic transformation. There are nature reserves in the European steppe, but they are (by Russian standards) microscopic, while in the West Siberian steppe there are no nature reserves or national natural parks.

At the same time, we should not forget that reserves are specially protected areas with the highest environmental status, although they, in turn, are divided into subcategories. In general, tourism here should not affect the main objects of protection and reproduction. However, each reserve determines for itself the scope and directions of environmental education activities, which include ecotourism.

Currently, there are a large number of definitions proposed for ecotourism. The first definition was given by G. Ceballos-Lascurain in 1980. Ecotourism, according to the author, is travel to relatively untouched or unpolluted natural areas with the specific purpose of learning, admiring and enjoying the contemplation of nature, landscapes, plants and wild animals, as well as studying the cultural characteristics of these territories.

The following criteria characterize this type tourism:

1) ecotourism should be based on the use of predominantly natural resources;

2) it must minimize damage to the natural and socio-cultural environment;

3) the orientation of such tourism should place the main emphasis on environmental awareness and education;

4) tourism development should ensure sustainable economic and social development, as well as the cultural and environmental well-being of the local population of the areas where it is carried out.

The presence on our territories of a unique natural heritage with a rich range of biological and natural diversity provides Russia with the prerequisites for the development of ecotourism. At the same time, the growing demand for environmental goods around the world can give a powerful impetus to the development of this particular type of tourism, focusing on the inbound tourism market. The main limiting factors are: the duration of such tours, as well as high tariffs for high-speed transport due to the remoteness of unique tourist resources.

Nevertheless, without targeted government support, this area of ​​tourism, apparently, will not develop.

Resorts and health-improving areas in the Krasnoyarsk Territory

Specially protected natural areas are areas of land, water and air space above them on which natural objects, having significance: scientific, cultural, aesthetic, health-improving.

These include nature reserves, national and natural parks, state reserves, natural monuments and other objects. As a rule, these objects are familiar to Krasnoyarsk residents many years before they are approved as a protected area. For example, the Stolby Nature Reserve, Karaulnaya Cave, Oreshnaya Cave, Ergaki Natural Park, Tagarskoye Lake, Plakhino Lake, Monastyrskoye Lake, Uchum Lake.

Natural areas, depending on their importance, have federal, regional and local significance. State nature reserves and national parks are protected areas of federal significance. The status depends on the value of the object, including historical value. In the region, these are primarily nature reserves: Sayano-Shushensky, Central-Siberian, Bolshoi Arctic, Taimyrsky, “Stolby”.

Read a good and interesting post:

There are almost a hundred specially protected natural areas in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Eleven are of federal significance and 87 are of regional significance. Protected areas of federal significance include seven nature reserves, a national park with an area of ​​39.2 thousand hectares, and three nature reserves. All of these are well-known sites that are popular with tourists and nature lovers. Each of them is unique in its own way and therefore truly especially valuable.

Protected areas of regional importance in the region are located on an area of ​​5187.1 thousand hectares. Natural Park "Ergaki" with an area of ​​217.0 thousand hectares. Unique object, which obviously has no equal in the whole world. Anyone who has visited Ergaki at least once will definitely come here again. Even if you have been here dozens of times, you still will not explore Ergaki and see all its beauties. Some of them - the Sleeping Sayan rocks, the Dragon's Tooth, the Hanging Stone - are covered in legends and traditions. They are publicly available. Others can only be conquered by very trained people. You can explore Ergaki every year and this will only make your life more interesting.

The main goal of creating the park and its infrastructure network is the protection and restoration of natural complexes and unique objects. People come here for beauty and the opportunity to unite with nature. Feel her with your heart and therefore become closer to her. It is important that not only the person sees her, but she also sees him.

There are thirty state nature reserves in the region with a total area of ​​1866.5 thousand hectares. Including eight complex reserves whose task is to preserve or restore nature. They are designed to show both Siberians and the whole world the beauty of the Sayan foothills, the northern taiga, the tundra - what nature has shaped over hundreds of thousands, if not millions of years, must be carefully preserved. Beauty should be known and seen not only by us, but also by dozens of future generations. Each generation is obliged to make its contribution to the preservation of natural objects.

There are 22 biological complexes in the region designed for the conservation and restoration of rare animals and plants. Fifty-five natural monuments with a total area of ​​38.6 thousand hectares. It is too National treasure, the value of which cannot be determined in money. It's priceless.

This also includes suburban green Zone Krasnoyarsk, created to improve the health of the city's air basin. To protect suburban forest plantations and soils from unfavorable natural and climatic conditions, negative influence of people. People today are seriously destroying nature.

Sanctuaries are areas of territory or water area in which certain species of animals, plants or part of a natural complex (landscape) are protected for a number of years or permanently, during certain seasons or year-round. Economic use of other natural resources is permitted in a form that does not cause damage to the protected object or complex.

According to their status, they are divided into reserves of federal and regional significance, and according to their profile - into complex (landscape) ones, intended for the conservation and restoration of natural complexes ( natural landscapes); biological (zoological, botanical), intended for the conservation and restoration of rare and endangered species of plants and animals, as well as valuable species in economic, scientific and cultural relations; paleontological, intended for the preservation of fossil objects; hydrological (marsh, lake, river, sea), designed to preserve and restore valuable water bodies And ecological systems, and geological.

Currently, on the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory there is one comprehensive ecological and ethnographic reserve of republican significance, “Eloguysky”, and 21 natural reserves of regional significance, with a total area of ​​1824.12 thousand hectares.

State ecological-ethnographic reserve of republican significance "Eloguysky" with an area of ​​747.6 thousand hectares, it is located on the territory of the Turukhansky district in the northern part of the Sym-Dubchesk mid-taiga upland in the river basin. Eloguy.

This reserve was created without a limitation period in order to protect the ecosystems of the middle taiga and maintain the ecological balance in the river basin. Yelogui, to preserve the cultural heritage and habitat of the indigenous peoples of the North. It is an integral part of the biosphere site of the Central Siberian Nature Reserve and is subordinate to it.

The main area of ​​the reserve is occupied by larch-cedar and larch-cedar-spruce middle taiga forests; dark coniferous taiga and pine forests are less widespread. The fauna is typical for the middle taiga and is represented by such species as sable, squirrel, weasel, wolf, elk, wood grouse, hazel grouse and others. The fauna includes 350 species of vertebrates. Species included in the Red Book of the Russian Federation are noted in this territory - peregrine falcon, osprey, golden eagle, white-tailed eagle and gyrfalcon.

State reserves of regional significance occupy an area of ​​1076.52 thousand hectares, located in the territories of 25 administrative districts of the region in various natural and climatic zones (Table 2).

The first reserves in the Krasnoyarsk Territory were organized more than 30 years ago; in 1963, by decision of the Krasnoyarsk Regional Executive Committee, 18 reserves of regional significance were established for a period of 10 years, mainly in areas where beavers and Barguzin sables were released; 11 of them are still in effect today. The last reserve "Bolshaya Pashkina" was organized in July 2001 in the Shushensky district with the aim of preserving highly productive pine forests, unique to the region, as well as rare and associated relict species plants and animals.

State natural reserves“Arga”, “Solgonsky Ridge” and “Sisimsky” are complex in profile, the rest are zoological.

Most reserves are aimed at preserving, restoring and reproducing valuable hunting and commercial species of wild animals along with their habitat. The Bolshemurtinsky, Talsko-Garevsky, and Krasnoturansky Bor nature reserves are engaged in the protection of Siberian roe deer in places of mass concentrations on migration routes and wintering grounds, as well as pine forest game.

The priority objects of protection in the Ubeysko-Salbinsky, Khabyksky, Kebezhsky, Bolshe-Kemchugsky, Malo-Kemchugsky, Kemsky, Makovsky, Bolshe-Kasssky nature reserves are the acclimatized beaver, as well as other species of semi-aquatic animals (otter, mink).

The territories of many reserves are inhabited by animals listed in the Red Books of the Russian Federation, for example, peregrine falcon (Bolshe-Kemchugsky, Malo-Kemchugsky and Prichulymsky reserves), osprey (Ubeysko-Salbinsky, Taibinsky, B-Kemchugsky and Sisimsky reserves), white-tailed eagle (reserves "Arga" and Berezovsky), saker falcon (B-Kemchugsky, Sisimsky). Sightings of the black stork have been recorded in the Arga, Solgonsky Ridge, Prichulymsky and Taibinsky nature reserves; There is reliable information about the presence of the gray crane in the Taibinsky and Bolshemurtinsky reserves during the nesting period.

In the Krasnoturansky Bor reserve there is a colony of gray herons, unique for the region, numbering about 100 nesting pairs.

It is planned to organize 45 new state natural reserves of regional significance with a total area of ​​2087.92 thousand hectares by 2005.

A complete list of state natural reserves of regional significance operating in the Krasnoyarsk Territory is given in Table 2.
