AbstractThe steppes of Central Asia are the habitat of the saiga antelope. Their range is divided into four isolated populations. Poaching threatens the survival of the species despite a strict hunting ban. The project has expanded community-based saiga antelope conservation through the development of village wildlife conservation associations in Kazakhstan.
