Protected natural rarities<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On the territory of the Municipality of Delchevo, the Ministry of Life for natural rarity declared three sites for which the Municipality of Delchevo previously within the Nature Conservation Program in Macedonia (PZP), a project of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) coordinated by Helvetas Swiss Intercooperation and Pharmachem, in partnership with the Center for Development of the East Planning Region (CRIPR), prepared three elaborations for valorization of the natural rarity: the speleological object Kiselicka cave, the characteristic geological profile at Zvegor and the Paleontological site Stamer.<\/p>\n

The proclamation of these three sites as a natural rarity will contribute to the protection of important sites, but also their putting into function of tourism, which is a priority goal in the LED of the Municipality of Delchevo. The Municipality of Delchevo plans in the next period to prepare reports and submit applications for valorization for the localities: Kukulje near the village. Nov Istevnik and the cave Konjska dupka near the village. City.<\/p>\n

Stammer Paleontological Site<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Paleontological site Stamer is rich in Pikermin fossil fauna located in the Delchevo region at a distance of 5 km southeast of Delchevo near the village of Stamer, and the area of the site is 25.6 hectares. According to the Decision published in the Official Gazette, the Summer Paleological Site is managed by the Municipality of Delchevo and in order to prevent damage or destruction of the natural rarity, the municipality undertakes activities for preservation and maintenance of the natural rarity, as well as protection measures. In that sense, the Municipality can conduct scientific research and monitoring after obtaining permission from the Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning, promotes natural rarity as a tourist destination, marks it with appropriate information boards, conducts educational activities for the need to preserve the site. The implementation of activities and actions within the limits of natural rarity, such as construction of access paths and arrangement of places of rest is done in a way that provides a high degree of protection of biological and landscape diversity in order to ensure proper management of natural rarity .<\/p>\n

The paleontological tomb of Pikermin fauna was determined and part, scientifically researched 12 years ago, when scientists from the Natural Science Museum in Skopje discovered important fossils of Pikermin fauna, such as the unique in Europe, giraffe skull, mastodon, fossil, fossil etc., fossils 10 to 3 million years old.<\/p>\n
