of animals and birds. The wetland is a wonderful complex

Birdwatching:
Tsengiin Burd wetland is in the core zone of Gun-Galuut
Nature Reserve. It’s well-conserved and 3km from our
camp. Every guest can see world endangered species- White-naped
Crane with babies.
White-Naped Crane or Grus vipio
is seen in the Gun-Galuut Nature Reserve's Tsengiin Burd
Wetland. Every year a pair of White-Naped Cranes spend the
summer in the NR. Last summer, the pair got a young one!
Further researches on their breeding etc haven't been made
by now. The Gun-Galuut Association made protection fences
around the Lake Ayaga and its wetland as the core areas
of the NR to protect the Lake from domestic animals and
human beings. In 2005, we are having 5 White-Naped Cranes!
In 2007 have 3 couples and 2 babies.
World Population: ~4900-5300
