          <para>Studies of the species composition and number of birds, mammals, insects, amphibians and reptiles were conducted by route method on routes (from 100 m to 20 km) and in the survey of registered areas (from 1 are to 15,000 ha). The species identification was made by visual and audial registrations as well as due to presence of dead individuals or their remnants. Coordinates were defined with the use of mobile and remoute GPS-devices.</para>
