Among these rare animals that can be found in the capital include black kites, green woodpeckers, klintukhs, russak hares, stoats, medium mottled woodpeckers, cackles, sparrow owls, beavers and many other species.
Parks and specially protected natural areas of the city are regularly maintained to preserve a comfortable habitat for animals and recreational opportunities for Muscovites.
The Moscow part of the Elk Island National Park will be placed under the management of the capital's government. In the future, a project will be developed to rehabilitate this territory.
