Общий вывод: Популяции сайгака в Казахстане быстро растут. В 2023 году официальные авиаучеты показали увеличение общей численности популяции на 45% и достижение почти 2 миллионов особей. Хотя устюртская популяция все еще относительно мала, как бетпакдалинская (745 300 особей), так и уральская (1 130 000 особей) превышают показатели 1980-х годов, когда этот вид использовался в потребительских целях.
The plight of the saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica) as one of the most threatened mammals in the world is a pertinent example of the consequences of illegal natural resource use. Despite international protection and conservation efforts, saigas continue to be hunted for both their meat and horns, making an improved understanding of the drivers of human decision-making a necessity to enable the design of more effective targeted saiga conservation efforts.

Understanding people’s perceptions and attitudes towards protected areas are an essential factor for the fulfilment of protected area goals. There are few studies that address this prior to protected area designation. The Saigachy Reserve in northern Uzbekistan is in the process of being re-designated. The goal of the reserve is to conserve the Ustyurt saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica). This study adopts a participatory approach to assess stakeholder knowledge, attitudes and perceptions towards the re-designated reserve and saiga conservation. Additionally, an evaluation of participatory stakeholder engagement was carried out simultaneously.
