The Badghyz and Karabil semi-desert ecoregion (WWF ID: PA1306) covers the hills north of the central mountain ranges of Afghanistan, southeast Turkmenistan, and portions of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. The landscape has been described as "savannah-like" and reminiscent of Africa, with desert sedges (Carex) and stands of wild pistachio trees (Pistacia vera). The area supports high biodiversity and a number of rare and endemic species, such as the endangered Turkmenian kulan (Equus hemionus kulan).

  • Напівпустелі Бадгиз та Карабіль (WWF ID:PA1306) — екорегіон охоплює пагорби на північ від центральних гірських хребтів Афганістану, південного сходу Туркменістану та частини Узбекистану та Таджикистану. Ця територія підтримує високе біорізноманіття та низку рідкісних та ендемічних видів, таких як Equus hemionus kulan, що знаходиться під загрозою зникнення. (uk)
  • Il semi-deserto di Badkhyz e Karabil (codice ecoregione: PA1306) è un'ecoregione che comprende gli altopiani collinosi che si estendono a nord dell'Hindu Kush, in Asia centrale, occupando l'Afghanistan settentrionale, il Turkmenistan meridionale, l'Uzbekistan meridionale e piccola parte delle confinanti aree di Iran e Tagikistan. La regione di Badkhyz presenta un peculiare ecosistema di savana xerofila dall'aspetto simile a quello dell'Africa orientale, dove le acacie sono però sostituite dagli alberi di pistacchio. Ospita popolazioni di asino selvatico asiatico (kulan), gazzella gozzuta (dzheiran), iena striata e (in numero ristretto) leopardo. Altri animali rari o minacciati di estinzione qui presenti sono l'urial, il tasso del miele, la puzzola marmorizzata, l'istrice indiano, l'avvolto (it)

Altri animali rari o minacciati di estinzione qui presenti sono l'urial, il tasso del miele, la puzzola marmorizzata, l'istrice indiano, l'avvoltoio monaco e un gran numero di roditori, uccelli e rettili. Spettacolari depressioni salate con collinette di roccia basaltica ospitano un certo numero di piante alofile. Badkhyz si trova lungo una delle rotte dell'antica via della seta, ma la regione è stata in gran parte abbandonata e desertificata durante il Medioevo. (it)
