Abstract
For long-term environmental and ecological research, it is essential to consider all components of the environment, including abiotic factors. Zhongar-Alatau State National Park is an area with unique habitats and a high biodiversity and is therefore a suitable area for new research on fauna. The aim of this monitoring research was to obtain information on the species diversity of small terrestrial mammals and avifauna in the Osinovaya site. The captured individuals were species identified and the skin integument and blood samples obtained will be used in further separate studies. In this report we provide an overview of the species monitored.
