Pleistocene Park, Nature reserve in Nizhnekolymsky District, Russia
The park stretches across 144 square kilometers of Siberian land, featuring 20 square kilometers of fenced areas for scientific research and animal observation.
Russian scientist Sergey Zimov established this experimental territory in 1996 to recreate the ecosystem that existed during the last ice age.
Scientists from multiple countries conduct research at the North-East Scientific Station to study the effects of large herbivores on Arctic environments.
Visitors need special permits to access the park, which requires advanced planning through the Pleistocene Park Association and coordination with local authorities.
The park maintains populations of reindeer, Yakutian horses, musk ox, and bison to transform tundra into grassland and protect permafrost from degradation.
