The Daurian Nature Reserve (Russian: Даурский заповедник, romanized: Daurskiy zapovednik) is a Russian zapovednik (strict nature reserve) situated in the southern part of Zabaykalsky Krai in Siberia, Russia, close to the border with Mongolia. It is part of a World Heritage Site named "The Landscapes of Dauria".[1]
The reserve was established in 1987 to protect the dry steppes and wetlands of South Siberia. It is contiguous with the Dornod Mongol Biosphere Reserve in Mongolia, a 8,429,072 hectares (20,828,690 acres) area of steppe immediately to the south.[2]
The reserve comprises 222,965 hectares (550,960 acres), of which about 173,201 hectares (427,990 acres) constitute the buffer zone which surrounds several protected core zones. The core area is of about 49,764 hectares (122,970 acres) and is divided into 9 plots. The buffer zone of the reserve covers the Torey Lakes: two large lakes called Barun-Torey and Zun-Torey.
