Rivers of the Sverdlovsk Region: Ufa, Tour, Sosva, Iset

The rivers of the Sverdlovsk region were famous for a large number of fish several centuries ago. However, with the construction of the dam, the population of species began to decline sharply. The first dam, located on the Iseti reservoir, caused the death of many representatives. Unfortunately, the installation of dams touched almost all (even mountain) rivers, so the number of fish inhabiting other streams is reduced to this day. Rarest species of vertebrates, such as grayling, taimen, nelma, are found only in Tavda and its large tributaries. The remaining rivers of the Sverdlovsk region will not impress the species diversity.
