context_page_description: Dzhugdzursky Nature Reserve is a Russian 'zapovednik' on the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, on the territory of Ayano-Maisky region of the Khabarovsk Territory in the Russian Far East. With over 8,000 km2 of land area and over 500 km2 of marine area, it is the largest of the six nature reserves in Khabarovsk Krai. It supports spawning streams into the Okhotsk Sea for chum, pink salmon and coho salmon.
context_section_description: The northernmost zone, Dzhugzhur, is mostly larch forest, representative of the ecoregion, with some Scots pine.  The coastal regions of the reserve have flora characteristic of the Okhotsk-Kamchatka region.  The harsh climate (cold, wet, and with strong northwesterly winds in winter) is nevertheless supportive of a wide range of bird species: 185 species of birds have been recorded in the reserve, with 126 nesting in the territory.
  The animals of the reserve are those found in the meeting of the East Siberian taiga (sable, brown bear, wolverine, moose), the Arctic (ptarmigan, Rough-legged Buzzard), and the Asian (including bighorn sheep).  On the Okhotsk Sea coast are a variety of pinnipeds (that is, seals): Ringed seal (Akiba), Spotted seal (Larga), and Bearded seal.
