The East Kazakhstan area, partially the Pavlodar area, is the only place in Kazakhstan, where unique Pine forests have remained since the Ice Age. Although these Pine forests are specified as ?nature protection areas?, they are under continuous ( ... )
age from arson, fires and increasing harvesting. In many respects the situation is complicated by the low level of forest protection and the relative poverty of the local population, due to a lack of sustainable sources of income. According to expert forecasts, in the next 25 years these threats could significantly diminish the Pine forests and could threaten the Pine species altogether.
