About Tarim Euphrates Poplar
Protecting the world's largest contiguous wild Euphrates poplar forest along the Tarim River at the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, this reserve serves as a critical ecological barrier against desertification. The ancient poplar forests provide vital habitat for the Tarim red deer and other desert-adapted wildlife.
