Kurdistan’s hidden nature
The Kurdistan Region sits at a confluence of habitats, topographies, and climates, stretching from the Nineveh Plains to the snow-capped peaks in the Zagros Mountains. It is here that arid desert climes of the Arabian Peninsula meet the temperate air of the Mediterranean. These variations make the region rich in plant and animal life.
Take a tour through some of this unique environment to meet jackdaws who nest in the cliffs or a Persian jird, a nocturnal rodent that snacks on seeds and insects. Watch a kingfisher dive bomb Lake Darbandikhan in search of a meal.
