raise, watch the culinary historical project belarusian cuisine on our tv channel. the european bison is the largest animal in europe, a symbol of irresistibility and primeval power. one blow of its curved horns easily twists a tree. long shaggy hair has remained with these bulls since the time of the neighborhood with cave bears and woolly rhinos. one by one, a large animal died out, remaining only in the form of rock paintings. and

only the european bison could live up to historical times. at the beginning of our era giant bulls already fought in the gladiatorial arenas of ancient rome, then in the world there were as many as three subspecies of bison - the carpathian caucasian and the largest plain, which would later be called belovezhsky. human civilization developed weapons improved and in order to protect themselves from hunters, the plain bison left the usual open spaces and began to hide in the forests of the plain bison extended from the pyrenees to western siberia. however, by the eleventh century, the species had completely disappeared in england in the fourteenth scandinavia and
11:47 am
france to the eighteenth hungary and the balkans in the xix century. belovezhskaya pushcha became the last habitat of the flat bison in the 15th century, it became obvious that the bison is not only a status trophy, but also a strategic resource of the country. in 1409, an unprecedented army gathered in the grand duchy, tens of thousands of soldiers had to be fed. therefore, the commissaries set off in advance for the pushcha. hundreds of bison were killed there with their sinewy meat; the soldiers ate on the road to the grivalsky field, and thick skin became the basis for hundreds of pairs of boots . for the first time received its reserved status of bison. could hunt either the prince king himself, or his associates solely thanks to the permission of the prince, or the king. even

in ancient times, bison in belarus were treated with genuine care by the statutes of the grand duchy, the main legal codes of the state. in the 16th century, bison hunting was even punishable by death in the 16th century . the peasants had their own special types, for example, worthy the groom must have brought to his wedding the horns again of the giant. in the spring, it was considered absolutely necessary in the village to bury a few jagged stones in the fields in order to have a better harvest. despite the fact that restrictions on shooting bison were introduced as early as the 15th century, local peasants, of course, mined it. this is first and foremost food. well, the bison itself. this greatness is power. we can say that the bison occupied a certain sacred sacred place in the
11:49 am
mythology of belarus. the extinction of the bison was stopped artificially with the help of hard laws and a large staff of foresters. even in the period of the commonwealth, the so -called asochniks appeared. they had to follow the belarusian sounds like sakish for the forest, they were given land in the forest itself for work, they cultivated it, including guarding bison and other valuable animals. here they looked after the forest, expelled poachers and much, much more they were helped by kutniks and other categories of peasants. however, when the state weakened due to wars or uprisings, the forest giants were the first to be under attack. the 1863 uprising reduced the population the bialowieza bison almost doubled. the first world war left alive only one in five of
11:50 am
the ensuing revolution and civil war. to complete the job, the livestock was catastrophically reduced, until on february 9, 1921, in the quarter number 375, the last fatal shot was fired by the forester varfolomey pokovich was the last bison, as indicated in historical sources, which is important, as he himself said. he knew that it was cramming, supposedly. he took pity on her. yes, you can say in quotation marks, thereby killing the last bialowieza bison, a molar bison on territory of belovezhskaya square. thus, the hereditary forest guard from the village of stochek turned into one of the most famous poachers in the history of mankind. not receiving government support, he became a murderer of those whom he himself had to protect. his
11:51 am
excuse, that they say cramming was the last one, she was still destined for a lonely death, did not withstand any criticism. plus, they were just wrong. indeed, at that time there were no european bison left in nature, however, individual animals. still were in zoos around the world. bison were doomed to extinction by people, but people were able to return these animals from the brink of non-existence. in 1923, on the initiative of jan stoltsman, an international society was organized to save the bison. scientists from different countries, having united, conducted a census of all bison from zoos in germany, sweden, hungary, and other countries, it turned out that at that time there were only 48 bison left in the world, but the same 48. they also all descended from seven. individuals. all of them are the first herd. it was just all individuals,
11:52 am
which branched out and went. that's not one of them, only we can say that five clays are the largest part in the reproduction of the population of teeth, so scientists hoped that only a few animals would be able to revive the dead species. and it succeeded in bialowieza. i'll put my teeth in. returned already in 1929, thus, the reserved forest was left without its main inhabitants. just 10 years old. natives of zoos were placed in an enclosure with an area of about 300 hectares. here they were fed and monitored for reproduction. in 1953, seven bison were released into the wild. several generations grew up next to a man did not happen immediately even in the medieval chronicles there was a description of how bison supposedly
11:53 am
raised a knock on their horns and carried them into the forest or even sometimes surrounded a peasant wagon with hay in the middle of the 20th century. forest giants. again they began to pester the passers-by. after all, in captivity they brought food precisely by transport. when i put a bison near us from such a cart, they are all the first herd. sound under the first of them here to come there opa shouted there to come up to them, but they didn’t literally come running running, and many were not afraid of this, they grabbed this beetroot, which was brought to them directly from the wagon, despite jager sitting there on the wagon, trying to grab it. here such so so that has got used to such ceremony. they could well in the form of a man with wagons could not even give way to him. in 1971, 66 bison lived in belovezhskaya pushcha, in the 1981 it was
11:54 am
already 156 by the beginning, in the 1990s their number exceeded three hundred. it seemed that it was safe to say the danger was over, however, in fact , the struggle for survival continues only now it is not so much huntsmen. how many scientific thousands of modern bison are the descendants of only a dozen animal progenitors over the course of generations, closely related ties were inevitable, which began to awaken dormant ailments before. at one time, it was the embryonic that caused the death of the aurochs, the closest relatives of bison and favorites of slavic folklore died in the 17th century not from hunting bullets, but from genetic diseases that struck too small a population falls to such an extent that, perhaps, there is no longer counter-reproduction. this is to save the species even now, if it falls to the limit, very low feeling is not because of
11:55 am
this close relationship of the cross from this. here is money for the front, maybe the population will die. to avoid this, selective breeding is carried out in pushcha, thanks to which animals carrying defective genes cannot influence the population as a whole, so hunting, which almost destroyed bison in its time, is today a guarantee of the survival of this species. another way of long-term conservation of bison is the creation of separate populations. in 1974 two belovezhskaya herds changed their registration, the captured animals were transported to the berezinsky and pripyat reserves, as well as in pushcha. there were created for the bison all the conditions of a feeder with fragrant hay, which the animals usually go out in winter during rootless flatbread , rock salt, which can be enjoyed all year round. in belarus , there are almost a dozen habitats of
11:56 am
european bison nalibokski, osipovichi polesskiy ozeranskiy and others. in total, in the forests of belarus today there are twice as many individuals as the bialowieza bison itself. forest. another good news is the scientific discoveries of recent years. dna decoding is becoming more and more accessible every year, and now scientists from belovezhskaya pushcha , together with the academy of sciences of belarus , are using new opportunities to preserve the health of the population. for long-term summer teeth without taking into account there is no network, it is planned to create some kind of even on the basis of push. uh, central booked a nursery. again, where to hold such. here is a genetic study to select the most valuable animals to discard well done they are then released and exchanged somewhere to be taken out to be released. an analysis of the wool of the
11:57 am
bialowieza bison showed that today the genotype association is within relatively safe limits, but scientists are thinking about the future. today , there are almost one and a half thousand individuals in the republic. perhaps over time, the bison may completely leave the pages of the red book. thus, the protected forest of belarus became an island of salvation for the largest animals in europe, this contribution was so significant that the toponym belovezhskaya pushcha migrated to biology textbooks and today the original name of the subspecies of the plain bison has been replaced by the belovezhsky bison.
