Wild Horse & Deer Safari

The Khustain Nuruu Nature Reserve is unique for its establishment aimed at reintroducing the world's rarest wild horse, the Przewalski's horse (Equus ferus przewalskii Groves, 1986). Before the reintroduction of Przewalski’s horses, this area was an active wintering and spring grazing region for local herders from the Arkhalik, Altanbulag, and Bayankhangai districts in Tuv province. The first Przewalski’s horses were brought in 1992, and the reserve was designated as a “Protected Area” in 1993, with the status upgraded to a “Complex Protected Area” in 1998. When the area was first designated as protected, there were no white gazelles or argali sheep. However, in the mid-1990s, a significant migration of gazelles passed through the central region, leaving behind a few, and their numbers have now grown to over 600. In the early 2000s, argali sheep only passed through the reserve during their seasonal migrations in spring and autumn, but now more than 50 argali remain in the reserve year-round, growing and reproducing. Today, Khustain Nuruu is home to the world’s largest population of Przewalski’s horses, Mongolia's largest population of ibex, and the highest density of marmots.
