Bieszczady National Park encompasses an area of nearly 300 square kilometres. In 1992 it became a part of the "East Carpathian" International Biosphere Reserve, the first UNESCO reserve to be located in three countries. The Polish portion of this reserve is complemented by sections in Ukraine and Slovakia. The park's riches include the large predators that inhabit it, including wolves and lynxes. Bears can also be spotted here, around 80 of them live in the Bieszczady range. Another of the park's attractions is its growing herd of 300 bison. A large population of deer and stags live here as well, as do over 140 species of birds.
