Mongol Daguur, Protected wetland in Dornod Province, Mongolia

Located in eastern Mongolia, Mongol Daguur encompasses 8,429,072 hectares of temperate steppe, rocky outcrops, sand dunes, and extensive marshlands near the Russian border.

The designation of Mongol Daguur as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2005 marked a milestone in protecting this vast region's ecological value and natural resources.

Local residents maintain traditional practices within designated areas, including livestock grazing and gathering medicinal plants while adhering to conservation guidelines.

The reserve consists of three distinct zones: a core area of 570,374 hectares, a buffer zone of 1,072,220 hectares, and a transition area of 6,786,477 hectares.

White-naped cranes select Mongol Daguur's wetlands for nesting, while Mongolian gazelle herds roam freely through the protected grasslands throughout the seasons.
