Other Site Characteristics

The ecosystems of open raised and transition bogs, waterlogged pine and birch forests prevail in the reserve. There have been identified 223 species of higher vascular plants (2 protected species are Rubus chamaemorus and Oxycoccus microcarpus). The reserve is inhabited by rare species of animals included into the Red List of the Republic of Belarus such as greater spotted eagle (Aquila clanga), fish-hawk (Pandion haliaetus), black stork (Ciconia nigra), short-eared owl (Asio flammeus).

4.2 Quality and importance

All the habitats are characterized by a high degree of preservation as activities involving changes in the environmental conditions (hydrotechnical amelioration, extraction of minerals, clear felling, erection of business facilities) within the reserve area are prohibited.The goal of the establishment of the reserve is conservation of large bog forest area undisturbed by reclamation and forest use with the prevalence of raised bogs with the complex of plant communities of boreal bogs.
