#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. Taimyr Nature Reserves directorate invites everyone to take part in creative competitions of the March of Parks – 2024 campaign, which will be held in Taimyr under the motto Let’s save nature together!
From March 13 to April 27, a number of competitions will be held for northerners, some of which will be dedicated to the Putorana bighorn sheep, after which the Taimyr Nature Reserves named the year 2024. The campaign’s final event will take place at the end of April. The winners of the competitions will receive honorary diplomas and prizes, and the best works will be exhibited.
One of the competitions, an all-Russian one, will be dedicated to the world of protected nature: participants are invited to individually get acquainted with one of the Russian nature reserves and depict its living symbol.
Taimyr residents will also be able to prove themselves in a comic book competition. This year it is dedicated to hand-drawn mini-stories of the Putoran ram, told in the first person. Here it is important to convey the problems of the bighorn sheep survival, its ecological relationships, to reflect the work of nature conservation inspectors and the work of scientists that is carried out in the Taimyr Nature Reserves organization.
Even the smallest ones will be able to participate in the event. This year the exhibition-competition Putoranova Country and Barash-Putorash will again be held in kindergartens and additional education institutions. The children, together with their parents and teachers, will create crafts from recycled materials on the theme of the Putorana snow sheep. The best work from the institution will take part in the next stage – a city competition-exhibition organized in the Taimyr Nature Reserves.
In addition, the organization is launching a new family long-term project The Red Book of Taimyr Nature Reserves, where whole families will be able to express themselves: take part in a drawing competition – they will need to depict Red Book animals, birds, plants, lichens and mosses.
