they can make their own route among the rocks and tops up to four thousand. in spring time. is slowly coming to life. first. is the reserves may. only just beginning to flood. in early spring people used to get to the rocky range.

by chance. when you're not here we have not been aware of its existence for ten years when locals told us about it they said she put it once being sheltered in the caves first tunnel when we first came here we did see tracks left by sheep yes that's right i remember the first time i came here we didn't see tracks left by sheep. the cave extends for more than a kilometer several narrow corridors hide a large central chamber the cave walls are covered in drip stones still lack tights and still like mine it's. the north caucasus largest bat hibernates deep underneath the ground they represent the redbook species. and the horseshoe nosed bat more than

two thousand bats gather here in the winter they cuddle together in order to survive the cold weather in summer they fly to the foothills and return again in autumn they start preparing for migration in early spring when they split up into smaller groups. sometimes i find all of the boats covered with jew. they look very nice like covered in tinsel. ok visit closed ecosystem the humidity is one hundred percent and the temperature in the caves is constant which is exactly what bats need human should avoid staying in the caves for too long as they start to have an impact on the special climate conditions. you know. can you hear them calling. this means we've warmed up there confined habitat. if they start flying around they

will use up their fat and may not survive until spring. so let's get out of here. we back the rangers run into an unexpected obstacle to our riverbed starts to filling with water the water is now blocking their path. a few hours later novia be able to clear this hurdle the only path to the cave will be gradually immersed in water it will be impossible to use it again before next spring. the are doing river springs from the glaciers of the greater caucasus mountain range runs the length of the nature reserve scientists

say more than one hundred mountain streams and springs swiftly replenished with water. hunting in the reserves prohibited armed rangers make daily rounds of its territory as a rule their routes run through the wooded slopes of mountain gorges. inhabit the foothills unfortunately they still fall easy prey to hunters because they're obvious targets they like grazing in spaces and rarely go uphill.

landmarks scattered across the reserve reflect the history of. people first began using caves and overhanging rocks as dwellings times. a loans where the ancestors of. they built stone fortifications overlooking mountain pass so they be more easily defensible. in those days even temper lanes mighty army was unable to cross this territory the highlanders blocked the mountain passes and pelted his troops with stones. these tell was began to be built in the middle ages. period dates back to the fourteenth or seventeenth century. the most celebrated architectural landmarks of ancient north to set it they differ in height and shape as a rules large extended families lived in wide short towers taller ones were used as

lookout points and for other defensive turner says the towers were built close to villages and gorges with paths used by troops on foot and on horseback many were extensions of forbidding clips. rock faces. provided protection from infighting among the diverse array is. was served as. if people manning which tell was in the lowest lying villages at the entrance to the goal which noticed approaching enemy troops then they would lodge don't fall as people in all the town was so the smoke and the signal was in remote parts of the gorge. in accordance with the longstanding tradition. was to take no more than a year if builders failed to meet the deadline the structure was pulled down and built a new towers belonging to the same clan were regarded as sanctuaries in due course they became symbols of the clans power and wealth as time went by they turned into

veritable objects of worship. one of the most revered sanctuaries of the people is a medieval architectural site called the. located in the gorge one thousand nine hundred meters above sea level. alike contest indicates that here. from here in the tenth or eleventh century. this fence was built a couple of centuries later. initially in orthodox church was here but orthodoxy grew weaker it was turned into a pagan sanctuary. city to discos and animals by

hunters were brought here. scientists don't yet know exactly when that was built only logs were used to make it no nails or anything made of. carved poles support the wooden roof they feature patterns that look like a camel's head resting on a long neck. arrow and spirit heads have been flown here according to legend the oldest city in prince tar was kept here hasn't there in travelers visiting this place in the eighteenth century saw it. only natural features are destined to be the reserves eternal landmarks. over the centuries water and wind have crafted unique scapes.

many of them are hidden from the inquisitive eyes of tourists. only the staff of the nature reserve are aware of their location. if. this was the final is called the ring it is a unique natural feature of this sanctuary. and the river has broken through limestone beds here to make a hole in the shape of a ring there was a reflector that it forms a rainbow. one who falls like this one are rare not only in the caucasus but in the entire world the stone rate is about two metres wide. its broadest part consists of three layers of limestone the age of the rock is estimated between one hundred and one hundred twenty million years. more than. absolutely. i would say it's the standard for natural water. in the

limestone of the kerry range there also is crystal clear up to filtering through many kilometers of limestone not over. the current since he came in with rock terraces grados and knishes begins right under the ring waterfall it took the car to go on mountain stream thousands of years to force its way through the rock for. good. luck swaying many tons tumbled down from cliff tops and terrace hedges a stream winds are no loops through the stones and. this is. very clean water for life but it's a rare species in the mountain streams of the cold cases. the canyons must seawalls date back to the drastic period in winter they're covered

with ice they're known as weeping walls because of the constant drip. water in summer. if . the reserves melt and streams overflow their banks in early spring but they're not the main threat to the mountain paths rockslide said in with the arrival of warm weather. first tree removal cold clear cutting. second biggest games which are used to blast a baby bird in the curio. church the remains by machinery. find it easy on board and soil is deposited in valley feel.

lethal on the far. side to join the military because i thought that it was my duty that it was something that i could to help my country. my government that it is necessary for america you know. there was a lot of. the us a lot of murder of american officers and so. there were a lot of room. to grow out. before the war i always thought i wanted to win a lot of medals and to have a lot of decorations but afterwards i realize that they don't mean anything. that importance. i don't i don't i never kept the medal.

in spring called open mating season in the mountains of the north in nature reserve . this is the best time for observing what are otherwise quite secretive animals and scientists take full advantage of the opportunity. getting. in the way. you. know we'll have to walk. some.

will try to take. the train. hundred fifty. usually slides down slowly from the. place yes. in north.

and. nobody was hit. but the road was entirely blocked. the rangers will have to go on foot to reach them. sure a couple of. sometime ago there was a good chance of people. on the mountain. today scientists tend to observe them through their binoculars. these graceful animals.

caucasian goats have no difficulty clearing steep slopes they almost never slip off as they know how to spread their center of gravity evenly and choose the right foot hold and they have no fear of heights. the east caucasian variety of goats inhabits this reserve it's possible to tell them apart by the shape of their horns. with them flow for. in the form of a partial spiral. like this like it but. it's the right horn points to the left and the left horn points to the right. cohesion goats or wild animals but high in the mountains and they often allow rock climbers to come surprisingly close. at the most and would do you typically a matter of ten meters you think those who got used to the presence of people are

the only. quite tolerant of them near the training camps for rock climbers. when they can park for the night up in the mountains. there are many fascinating routes for climbing into zia's swithin the reserve law. they often use the cliff faces in glaciers for training any ascent is always fraught with risk. a small cliff is the best place for training and testing out new gear right. careful from here. there was strong gusts of wind during our ascent visibility was a me

a ten meter in those conditions we couldn't climb down from the top of the mountain i was a beginner climbing that was my third needless to say i was. a wise climber never ventures into the mountains. three climbers is the minimal number. summer is the ideal season for challenging. spring climbers examine the best way to . work out new routes and compare. description. we are going to. climb through that snow there and come from the right side through the. shooting rocks.

when we reach the place. let's get going. peaks of the mountain range takes no small effort. at. the climbers have to exert themselves to conquer the. in accordance with tradition once a top the summit rock climbers drink tea with bitter chocolate. to help yourself. but you hear what attracts me to the mountains that's the most difficult question i can think of i don't think any climber or fan of extreme sports could answer it or simply are enjoy rock climbing and the beautiful landscape. descends on the

mountains rapidly and in spring the weather can change very quickly the climbers need to get down as fast as possible. mazes received in. their group reached the top at thirteen forty five when beginning of a descend what's the weather like just fine everything's ok. good luck. thanks. the reserve is situated along the buck avoid range where the slopes are steep and rocky some of the peaks are four and a half kilometers above sea level rocks stones and glaciers are scattered all around. discussed the schemers or it is situated in the glaciers melt in the.

reserve staff get down to the most important work at the height of the springtime ski season. they're going to release this small bison herd into the wild for the time being the animals graze in a special pen. these bison have lived in captivity since birth the blood of a wild ox by the name of cub because flows in their veins. was sent to a private nursery after being caught in one thousand seven by the russian emperor

while on a hunting expedition when all the bison had been exterminated in the north caucasus it was come cause at the forefront of the restoration of the caucasian bison subspecies. to do the. great grandson of gulf caused by the name of the door was born in one thousand nine hundred twenty five but there were as far as i can gather he was the forefather all the caucasian subspecies of the bison in the one nine hundred thirty s. he was taken toscanini in nova nature reserve there or he made to do with female bill or was by certain that was the origin of a bison subspecies with a caucasian blood. since early this morning reserve staff have been trying to compel the bison to enter special cages for transportation. during their quarantine period animals became accustomed to their pen and learn to trust people so they're in no hurry to go out and the wild.

after several and successful attempts one of the females is lurd into the cage now the herd will follow suit mice and are known for their matriarchal behavior. come on faster. well done. the bison steadfastly endured their temporary captivity all on their way to their new habitat . the return of caucasian bison to the wild is a joint project undertaken by the north the such a nature reserve and the world wildlife fund. there are things ready so we go yes let's go. by sin already accustomed to the wild grays nearby. it's not yet known whether they'll accept or reject their newcomers. the forests and the mountains

are beyond human influence through. all that's left for the reserve staff to do is monitor the animals and preserve this protected area of the north caucasus. the united states of america is waging war within its own army. joe now advantage is on no one side. and human losses are quite significant. is it possible to win the war against sexual assault in the u.s. armed forces sex in the army on r g.
