A variety of invertebrate animals here is even more: not only there are more than thousand kinds of insects. Mollusks, worms, spiders, crustaceous and others living in Kazakhstan are not less than 30 thousand kinds. Northern Kazakhstan is fertile forest-steep; to the south – steppe, behind them semi-deserts and sandy deserts with saxaul thickets. On slopes of mountains are located the coniferous woods. The plateau Usturt of Kazakhstan, located between Caspian and Aral seas, is a slightly hilly deserted plain, faintly covered by a wormwood; only in widely widespread hollows are black saxauls. Unique beauty of a landscape give steep benches – chinks. Western chink is especially picturesque, which height achieves 340 meters; the breakages, destroyed by a wind, accept him whimsical form. Only in Kazakhstan live such rare animals as Transcaspian urial, long-needle hedgehog and some wild cats: caracal and desert cat. Here is a lot of slim goateed gazelles, deserted birds – black-tailed sand grouse, Pallas sand grouse, wheatear and larks. Only here it is possible to meet fury ounce, Tien Shan brown bear, Siberian ibex, and from birds-famous lammergeyer, the scope of which wings reaches more than three meters, Snow cock, snow vulture, griffon vulture, favorite of the Kazakh hunters – golden eagle, high-mountainous finches, chough and Alpine chough.
