There are important feeding places for raptors and breeding habitats for Arctic fox Alopex lagopus and lemmings. The site supports the threatened bird species Branta ruficollis and Anser erythropus. Large numbers of breeding and molting waterbirds are supported, particularly White-fronted goose Anser albifrons, Bean goose A. fabalis and Red-breasted goose Branta ruficollis, about 25% of the Taimyr Peninsula population. 80% of the Taimyr population of wild reindeer Rangifer tarandus are supported. Human activities include commercial hunting for Arctic fox, bird hunting, and small-scale fishing. There is a biological station at the site. Ramsar site no. 697. Most recent RIS information: 1997.
