These animals will also appear in the east of the country.

Bison continue to be resettled in Belarus. Now they will be bred in the east of the country.

The authorities explain this choice by ecological and natural conditions of the region, BelTA writes.

Large populations have already formed in Belovezhskaya and Osipovichi forests - 700 and more individuals live there. Now the animals will be settled on the territory of the Cherikovsky forestry. It is not by chance that the new population is being created in this area.

There are a lot of abandoned lands affected after the Chernobyl accident. These areas are overgrown with weeds, and the bison will help restore the ecobalance.
