Automatic photo cameras were installed in the "Zorkul" State Reserve

MONDAY, 09.11.2026 /Khovar National Information Agency/. Automatic photo cameras were installed in the territory of the "Zorkul" State Nature Reserve in order to strengthen the monitoring of the state of biological diversity in winter. In this regard, Khovar National Information Agency was informed by the Environmental Protection Committee under the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan.

We remind you that the State Nature Reserve "Zorkul" is one of the rarest and most mountainous protected areas of the Republic of Tajikistan, which is located in the Eastern Pamir (in the Murgob and Ishkoshim districts of Badakhshan Mountainous Autonomous Region).

Cameras are placed in ecological crossings, movement routes and places of gathering of wild animals and are designed to observe and record the activity of animals in the natural environment.

Recorded images provide an important basis for determining the species composition of animals, estimating their numbers, studying seasonal movement and analyzing the state of populations.

The use of such modern technologies allows scientists and specialists to collect and analyze the necessary information without disturbing the environment of animals.

Installation of automatic cameras is an important step in the development of scientific monitoring, protection of rare animals and preservation of biological diversity of the "Zorkul" State Nature Reserve.
