About what is a reserve, aware ofalmost everything. A little is known about what a wildlife sanctuary is and how it differs from the reserve. Well, it's time to expand your horizons and understand more about this issue.
Once the ancient Russian word "order"was not at all as important as it is now. It meant doing something inaccessible or forbidden. That is, "order" meant "to forbid." A natural reserve is a territory that is of particular importance for the restoration or preservation of certain natural complexes or their individual components, as well as for maintaining the ecological balance.
Within the given area certainspecies of flora or fauna of forest, meadow, steppe or water areas: rocks, valleys, caves, lakes, rivers, etc. In order to have a more precise concept of what a reserve is, imagine that the state allocates a site land or water space within which certain types of human activities are strictly prohibited or limited. For the official announcement of the territory by the reserve, it is not necessary to withdraw it from owners and users. Natural reserves are always under the protection of the state and have a federal or regional status.
We will continue to study the question of what isand how it differs from the reserve. As already mentioned above, the goal of any reserve is the preservation and development of certain species of animals, birds and plants, in contrast to the reserves, whose purpose is to protect all living beings that inhabit the protected area and plants on it. That is why in reserves all kinds of economic and industrial activities, as well as hunting and fishing are prohibited. But in the wildlife preserves the restrictions are not so large-scale and strict. They concern only certain types of human activities or have a time frame. For example, if any species of plants are protected on the reserve's territory, hunting and fishing can be allowed.
Under adverse weather conditions (toofrosty winters, drought, etc.) in the wildlife sanctuaries, the feeding of animals is usually organized. In the reserves, the holding of such events is not stipulated by the rules, since human intervention is minimized. State reserves are hunting, botanical or hydrological, and reserves - natural, historical, landscape, archaeological. There are even museum-reserves, which include a park, part of the city or a manor that has historical value.
In order to better understand what a wildlife sanctuary is,It is necessary to consider in more detail their different types. Hunting reserves are created in order to preserve the populations of animals. As is known, in our time many species of fauna are endangered and listed in the Red Book. On the territory of such an economy, bans are imposed on reclamation, deforestation, road construction and construction. All these restrictions are aimed at preventing the impact on the habitat of protected living objects. The catch and hunt are also imposed bans - both temporary and permanent.
For birds and animals, feeders are arranged andspecial feeding grounds. In areas prone to flooding, for example, during floods, restrictive dams are constructed to prevent flooding of burrows of meadow rodents, and to preserve bird clutches, anthills and bumblebees nests.
In landscape, botanical or hydrological reserves, security functions and prohibitions are closely related to scientific research conducted on their territory.
On the territory of the Russian Federationmore than 70 federal sanctuaries. Of these, one of the oldest are "Priazovsky", "Voronezh", "Tyumen" and "Tseysky" nature reserves. All of them were founded in 1958.
But the youngest can be considered "Leopard Zakaznik" (founded in 2011) and "Valley of Dzieren" (the year of foundation - 2008). The largest are Franz Josef Land (its area is 42 000 km2 comparable in size with the territory of the Netherlands), "Burkala" (19 570 km2) and "Purinsky" (7,875 km)2).
