Earlier in the morning on July 18, 78 -year -old Alabiyi also rushed to yak towards the pasture. From a distance, he and the yak seemed to go to a blue carpet, and it looked like a beautiful picture of the sun.

Alabay is a herdsman in Muji Village, Muji Village, Muji Township, Aktao County, Kiru Sukir Kiz, and has 120 yaks at home. He couldn't say how many generations lived on this land, and only knew that Grandpa's grandfather also grazed here.

From home to the pasture, Alabay and his yak groups have been walking along the edge of the Pamir Plateau Wetland Nature Reserve. Although the water plants in the Pamir Plateau Wetland Nature Reserve will be more lush, he does not look at it towards The protected area glance.

"It is the 'treasure land' given us by nature, and we cannot destroy this beautiful place," said Alabayi.

The Pamir Plateau Wetland Nature Reserve is located at the foot of the Eighteen Warriors of the Kunlun Mountain. The snow and melting water on the Kunlun Mountains gathered under the mountain, nourishing the waterweed here. In 2005, the autonomous region government will be high mountain ice belts above 5000 meters above sea level, alpine cold desert bands between 4500 meters and 5000 meters above sea level, high mountains, Asia Gaoshan grassland belts between 3000 meters and 4500 meters above sea level, and below 3000 meters above sea level The desert bands are all included in the protected area, forming a wetland nature reserve with the highest altitude of 1256 square kilometers.

When I heard that the Pamir Plateau Wetland Nature Reserve was established, Alabay was silent. Although he didn't understand what the Nature Reserve was doing, he knew that he could not go to the most rich area of ​​waterweed in the future.

"Later, the township government promoted us, so we understood the truth that protecting the plateau wetland in order to allow our children and grandsons to live here, so that more people know that there are good places in Kezhou." After this question, Alabay was no longer tangled and drove the yak groups and sheep to the nature reserve with other herders to graze outside the nature reserve.

The Kizhou Party Committee and Government conscientiously implement the idea of ​​an internship ecological civilization, and firmly establish the concept of "green water and green mountains is the golden mountains and silver mountains". , Create a good natural environment for the growth of animals and plants.

Driven by the coordinated advancement of multiple departments, the support of the masses, and the promotion of corporate assistance, the Pamir Plateau Wetland Nature Reserve has become a paradise for animals and plants. There are 169 animals and 249 plants here. Among them, only national first -level protected animals There are 7 types.

"Plateau wetland is a very special natural environment. We must protect and make good use of the plateau wetland so that this plateau wetland will always stay with us." Wang Siqin, secretary of the party branch of the Pamir Plateau Wetland Management Station.
