Kalameili
The Kalameili Mountain range is a low, east-west oriented mountain chain. With its complex landforms, rich vegetation, abundant water sources, and sparse human presence, it forms an ideal "paradise" for wildlife to thrive.
Established in April 1982, the reserve spans a total area of 17,000 square kilometers. Nationally protected rare animals here include the Mongolian wild ass, Przewalski’s horse, argali, and goitered gazelle (also known as yellow sheep).
Today, the primary species under protection — the Mongolian wild ass — has grown to over 700 individuals, while the goitered gazelle (yellow sheep) population has exceeded 10,000. In addition, various other rare hoofed wildlife such as wild camels, Przewalski’s horses, argali, and Pallas's cats, as well as bird species like Eurasian kestrels, golden eagles, great bustards, and sandgrouse, and reptiles such as sand lizards, have all seen varying degrees of population growth.
Transportation
National Highway 216 runs directly through this reserve, making it very convenient for travel and sightseeing.
