Answer 1

the steppe is the treasure of Kazakhstan. The temperature here drops to -35°C in winter and can reach up to 35°C in summer. In the Kazakh steppe there are many wild animals such as pikes and saiga antelope. Some animals are even threatened with extinction. The steppe is also a treasure trove of agricultural products. For example, milk, meat, and vegetables. The steppe also produces minerals such as zinc, coal and lead. The only ecological difficulty of the steppe is climate change. But all the same, all the charms of the steppe inspire Kazakhs to preserve it.
