Jazy Game Reserve (Kyrgyz: Жазы зоологиялык (аң уулоочу) заказниги, also Ясин Yasin) is a protected area in Özgön District, Osh Region, Kyrgyzstan.[1][2] It is located in the flood plain of the lower reach of the river Jazy, near the city Özgön. It was established in 1975 to conserve flood plain reed-sandthorn brushwoods and wetlands, serving breeding areas for pheasant, and wintering ground for water-fowl birds. The reserve occupies 5,000 hectares.[3][4]
