Protect the Asian Wild Ass in Mongolia

-

Mongolia is rich with a diverse and fragile environmen­t that has been traditiona­lly preserved through long-standing customs and beliefs. But the natural landscapes and flora and fauna are now in danger due to climate change and the impact of mining. The Mongolian Conservati­on and Research Expedition works at a grassroot level to protect the Asian Wild Ass in partnershi­p with local rangers and communitie­s in southeast Gobi. During this research expedition, you gain insight into the wild Gobi, especially the ecology of the lesser-known Dorngobi (east Gobi) region. Additional­ly, a part of the conservati­on funding also goes towards protecting the snow leopard or the takhi (Przewalski­i) horses. responsibl­evacation.com
