Natural Fish Breeders is a Mongolian nonprofit dedicated to conserving native river fish — taimen, lenok and grayling — and the freshwater habitats they depend on. Because healthy fish populations require healthy rivers, our work directly supports UNCCD goals: we monitor watersheds, restore riparian vegetation, curb riverbank erosion, train herder guardians along more than 480 km of river basin, and use fish as living indicators of land degradation, drought stress and ecosystem recovery.
