A step towards restoring the full faunal assemblage of the Eurasian steppe within the frames of the Altyn Dala Conservation Initiative
A new project, KULANSTEP, aims to repopulate the central steppe of Kazakhstan with kulan. The project will transport kulan from the large population in Altyn Emel National Park in southeastern Kazakhstan to a release site on the ~60,000 km² Torgai steppe, strategically located in a network of protected areas, ecological corridors, and hunting areas.
