Summary/Abstract: This study presents the significant anthropogenic impact of recent years has imposed the need to protect nature at the local, regional and global level, therefore numerous laws have been promoted to protect the environment and various measures have been imposed. The aim of these measures is to preserve biodiversity at all levels. Protected areas are vital for biodiversity conservation, they represent the basis of all national and international conservation strategies, they contribute to maintaining the functioning of ecosystems, serve as refuges for species and maintain ecological processes that could not survive in intensively managed terrestrial or marine landscapes. Given the context we are going through, i.e. the decline of biodiversity at an alarming rate, we considered it opportune to analyze the fauna of the Buciaş Nature Reserve, Bacău County. The analysis consisted of the classification of fauna protected by the Bern Convention, in terms of IUCN categories and population trends. Considering the problematic situation of biodiversity globally, the results of the analysis are gratifying, 95% of the analyzed species are non-threatened species, 3% are almost threatened and only 1% are vulnerable species, otherwise Romania is one of the countries with a wide biodiversity and well preserved.
