MBDOU D/S No. 28 “Lyudmila” of a combined type, Korolev PRESENTATION ON THE TOPIC: “NATIONAL PARKS OF RUSSIA. ELK ISLAND (FOR SENIOR PRESCHOOL CHILDREN) Teacher Asadova S. A.

In Russia, 35 have been created over 30 years national parks. The main idea of ​​creating park areas is not only to preserve nature and historical monuments, but also the development of eco-tourism, instilling respect for nature among people. Losiny Ostrov is considered the first national park in Russia. Slide text

National Park "LOSINNY ISLAND" Was founded in 1983 near Moscow. The uniqueness of this park is the only park within large metropolis in the world. where you can see wild animals and rare plants grow. For example, 10 km from the Kremlin you can see beavers, moose, and birds of prey.

According to its functions, Losiny Island can be divided into three zones: Specially Protected; Area for sports and walking; Rest zone.

The Yauza and Pekhorka rivers flow through the territory of the national park.

IN flora The national park is dominated by forests. The dominant trees are pine, spruce, larch, birch, oak and linden.

IN pine forests common wolfberry, lily of the valley, peach-leaved bellflower and European bathwort grow.

In deciduous forests you can see nettle-leaved bellflower, green-flowered and two-leaved lyubka, and a real nesting plant.

In swamps and near reservoirs, swamp moth, spotted palmetto, two-horned kokushnik and Fuchs have become widespread.

The national park has a wide variety of fauna. The Yauza River creates excellent conditions for the habitat of many wild animals. Mammals - sika deer, elk, wild boar, muskrat, mink, fox, mountain hare, squirrel.

On the topic: methodological developments, presentations and notes

Summary of organized educational activities on ecology in the preparatory group using ICT technology. Theme: “Losiny Ostrov National Park”

Improve children's knowledge about native land: its nature, animal and plant world....

Reserves and national parks of Russia

A presentation for children of senior preschool age about nature reserves and national parks in Russia will make it possible to explain to children the concepts of “reserves” and “national parks” in an accessible way...

There are no large rivers or reservoirs in or near the national park. But its territory is crossed by a rather dense network of small rivers, streams and hollows. This is where the sources of the river are located. The Yauza and its tributaries Ichka, Budaika, Los, Nekhlyudov sleeve, Bogorodsky and Bannyi streams and the river. Pekhorka (tributary of the Moscow River) with a number of small tributaries. In the eastern part, the park is crossed by a water canal built in the pre-war years, supplying Volga water to the capital. Water from this canal also flows to the Yauza and Pekhorka. There are several ponds in the park: Alekseevsky, Golyanovsky, Kazenny, Yegersky, etc. All these ponds are located in the recreational area of ​​the park. In the depths of the forest, many barrels have been preserved, created in the last century for fire prevention purposes. Now they are extremely important for animals as watering places and breeding grounds for amphibians. The swamps in the park occupy a fairly large area. The Verkhne-Yauza wetland complex with an area of ​​about 1 thousand hectares is of particular value. In addition to the vast massif, there is a number of swamps of different sizes and origins (lowland, transitional, upland) and areas with constant and periodic waterlogging.

Elk Island

Losiny Ostrov National Park is the first in Russia, created in 1983 on the territory that since ancient times served as jealously protected hunting grounds of great princes and tsars. The first forest management was carried out here in 1842, and the idea of ​​​​creating a national park was expressed back in 1909.

The park is located in the Moscow region and Moscow. The area is more than 12 thousand hectares, including 3 thousand hectares within the administrative boundaries of the city.

Geographically, the park is confined to the junction of the Meshcherskaya lowland and the Klinsko-Dmitrovskaya ridge, which is the watershed of the Moscow and Klyazma rivers. The terrain of the territory is a slightly undulating plain. Absolute altitudes areas range from 146 (floodplain of the Yauza River) to 175 m above sea level (squares 45 and 54 of the Yauza Forest Park). In the central part of the park there are gentle moraine ridges.

The history of this place is known from documents of the 14th century, in particular, from the spiritual letters of Russian princes - Ivan Kalita, Dimitry Donskoy, Vladimir Andreevich Serpukhovsky and their descendants. They mention arable lands, forests, and borders located on the territory of the current national park. Later, this area becomes a place for royal hunts, and the lands of the future “Elk Island” come under protection. During the Time of Troubles, economic activity in these places is sharply reduced, and former arable lands are again overgrown with forest. The heyday of Losiny Island as a hunting ground is associated with the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov.

With the transfer of the capital to St. Petersburg, the territory of “Losiny Island” loses its significance as royal hunting grounds, but as state property it is protected by imperial decrees. Around the same time, the name “Losiny Ostrov” or “Pogonny Elk Island” was finally assigned to the territory. In 1934, Losiny Ostrov was included in the 50-kilometer forest park belt of Moscow.

In 1979, by a joint decision of the Moscow city and regional councils of people's deputies, it was organized natural Park"Losiny Island", and in 1983, by decision of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR, a national park was formed.

"Losiny Ostrov" is unique territory. Its uniqueness does not lie in the fact that there are some special “super-remarkable” objects like Grand Canyon or a free herd of elephants, but in the fact that on its territory near the multimillion-dollar city, the nature of Central Russia in all its diversity has been preserved in its natural form: coniferous, birch and broad-leaved forests, areas of meadows and raised swamps, the sources of the Yauza with lakes and floodplains. Ten kilometers from the Kremlin live beavers, wild boars and moose, many birds of prey, and rare plants in the Moscow region grow.

The “island” is also interesting for its historical and cultural attractions. Archaeological research has revealed to us the burial mounds of the Vyatichi people (XI-XII centuries), ancient settlements. The excavations in Alekseevskaya Grove were sensational, where the remains of a palace building from the late 17th century were discovered. And the history of the Mytishchi pumping station is closely connected with the construction of the first gravity water supply system in Russia during the time of Catherine II. Once upon a time in these parts there was a chapel on the famous Thunder Spring, the most abundant source of water for capital city. And the Belokamennaya station on the first Moscow district railway- a rare monument of industrial architecture. On Yaroslavskoe highway ( former road to the "Trinity") visitors to the park will be pointed to Poklonnaya Gora- a holy place for pilgrims.

The forests of Losiny Ostrov stretch for almost 10 km from south to north and 20 km from west to east. They occupy more than 80% of the park's area. Birch forests took a dominant position, and the number of linden and aspen forests increased. From the 19th century only a few old pine trees remained. Hazel, rowan, euonymus, honeysuckle, and buckthorn grow in the undergrowth. Among the abundant herbaceous vegetation you can see anemone, lungwort, chistak, goose onion, corydalis... There are also rare species that are subject to special protection.

More than 48 species of mammals live in the lands of Losiny Ostrov: moose, sika deer, wild boars, foxes, hares, minks, stoats... On the reservoirs you can see beaver dams and muskrat lodges.

Almost 200 species of birds nest in the park or are observed on migration routes. Very rarely, but still, the black stork flies to Losiny Ostrov - a species listed in the Red Books of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Bean geese, gray and white-fronted geese and even whooper swan stop to rest. And thousands of ducks of different species, flocks of herons, and colonies of seagulls have become commonplace here.

"Losiny Ostrov" is the only nesting place in the Moscow region for a feathered predator - the falcon. Goshawk, hobby hawk, buzzard, black kite, and kestrel live freely here. In the meadows and swamps you can hear the voices of crakes, bitterns, and corncrakes. The tawny owl nests in linden hollows, and the long-eared owl nests in small forests.

The sources of the Yauza and Pekhorka rivers are located in the park. The climate of the region is moderate continental. Fluctuations in the average annual temperature are 3-4.80. The coldest month is January ( average temperature-90 - 110), the warmest is July (average temperature +190 +200). The prevailing winds are western and southwestern directions.

The wild nature preserved inside the metropolis amazes our guests. One of them, an employee of the Pyrenees National Park D. Tribault-Laspierre (France), even wrote a letter to the President of Russia: “I expected to see something like a large public garden, adapted for the needs of citizens, in which you can admire the trees and lawns, however, in fact this is a real protected area where they have been preserved. wildlife, a real national park... None Big City France and, as far as I know, all of Europe, and who knows, the whole world, cannot boast of such a contrast."

However, the value of Losiny Ostrov is not limited to its natural advantages. Ancient land has its own deep historical and cultural roots

In 1989, by order of the national park, the first archaeological expedition was organized, as a result of which ancient burials of the Vyatichi Slavs of the 9th-12th centuries were discovered. Historical and landscape studies, now carried out annually, have revealed burial mounds, settlements, and ancient roads.

They became sensational archaeological excavations in Alekseevskaya Grove. Grove - most beautiful place in the park: ship pines, mighty spruce trees, ponds, the Pekhorka River. Thousands of Muscovites and residents of the Moscow region love to relax here. On ancient maps, next to the ponds, a place called Alekseevsky Palace was marked. And indeed, under a layer of soil, archaeologists found the remains of a palace building from the mid-17th century. - white stone masonry, stove tiles, unique tiles. There was an assumption that one of the travel palaces of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich was located in Alekseevskaya Grove. Now it is planned to create a museum complex "Tsar's Hunt in Rus'" on this site.
