Nurata
nature reserve
Nuratinsky [zapovednik] (approximately 200
km2) was formed in 1975 in Djizak Region in a mountain/savanna
ecosystem characteristic because of its nut tree forest.
The reserve accommodates wolf, Severtsov's urial, wild
boar, and several species of raptors. In 1991, Nuratinsky
lost 4000 ha to logging and is presently compromised by
a village, Madjerum, situated in its core. The zapovednik
contains petroglyphs and the highest point in the Nuratau
Mountains, Khayatbashy (2000+ meters).
