brown bears behave as though they own the land and. this is can chapter located in the northeast of russia. one of the world's most unique and unusual nature reserves as funny as. the renowned valley of guises is hidden in the mountains on the east coast of can chant go. in the canyon among the chaos of shia cliffs and ravines life is bubbling under literally boiling. this place is difficult to reach the are no roads flying provides the only feasible means of transport. this route is difficult for pilots but fascinating for passengers. helicopters fly along the eastern

volcanic ballast. the can ski volcano is one of the most active ones its creator constantly throws up hot gas and ash. its interruption is beautiful but to insurers on one occasion it pilot decided to fly up closer to the real kennels creatures and over for a little while to a tourist's seed eruption but the airship and guinness turned out to be so hot that the coffee at school last melted immediately while the paint on the fuselage got scorched it's just so the valley of guises lies between two active volcanoes. the area has deep underground thermal energy sources place earthquakes rock slides and landslides. happen very often. heat rises to the

surface forming intricate shapes three hundred family activity. excursion path runs along the central part of the valley of. this geologically small area has the largest guises numerous boiling springs mudholes rising steam and in the world. i think if we choose. the place rather than. park in taiwan we do have but it's small. markets. but this one. little is known about the formation of the valley of

geysers vulcanologist believe it to be about two thousand years old which they calculated using the speed of its growth. every five years it expands by one point two millimeters. the ranks with the steam springs and guises consist mostly of opal. geyser right is formed from boiling minerals which sometimes emerge along with the rules of. the tourist path is away from the large guises to protect people from hot water and steam during an eruption. playing grass conceals the most dangerous spots in the valley. liquid mix of clay water and sulphur. to keep tourists safe it's very hot here on the ground one can fold if they stay. and end up getting

thermal and chemical burns which can take a long time to heal. beds are the only ones who can intuitively find a safe way among the boiling springs and mud holes. they have no fear of the guises mountain river. beds are the true keepers of the carnacki nature reserve. and. they never come across poaches so they kindly let inspectors use their path to walk around the area. but as always take the most efficient and simplest routes. see how far these marks or. person on a hundred and ninety centimeters tall. have been using this more. confrontations they bite into the tree trying to reach best highest possible to show their height this way other

beers. to avoid conflict. during salmon spawning the shoals of lake curial have the highest density of beds in the world unexpected encounters between man and bear on avoidable. hey where you go. they may look slow clumsy and heavy but it doesn't stop bad from being dextrous and strong they can cover fifteen metres in just two or three strides. dimitry is an experienced nature reserve inspector. he comes across several times a day and is now accustomed to that behavior. some. very memorable encounter with. a.

fool. there were about. tenderness and hunger and her jaw was literally dripping with. a rifle i've never seen such a. my life. lead to a junction of small brooks. salmon make their way through to get to the lake. not surprisingly it's not only a favorite feeding place but also a great space for everyone else to film these amazing beasts. they. are not afraid of people. for centuries the locals never went hunting for and never attacked them. one of the smartest and strongest predators and keep growing throughout their entire lives. they learn quickly at any age and have

a good long term memory. in spite of their weak eyesight find their way around easily they sense fish and see them. for three years during this time she breastfeeds them. fish. but she's the only one who can teach her young to fish for them. selves. later they will practice and improve their skills throughout their lives. or see she's standing upright nicely while she's tracking the fish standing up on

her hind legs she gets a good view of where and how to fish she's so cute. there's live according to a strict routine. they hibernate for half a year during winter in spring and early summer they mate and then spend the rest of that time looking for food. beds the completely omnivorous. this female stays in the zone volcano caldera with her cub even during the salmon season. bears live in the area permanently they don't go fishing. this female bear is eating gross now with

a laser her food will be supplemented with berries and pine knots or you could get the last one you could very healthy and nutritious food as just as they offer people. they only have girls to eat. new song called there it is located at the carnacki nature reserve in the central part of can chant. about three hundred thousand years ago a street kilometer told conic strato volcano rose in place of whose own. it collapsed as a result of several larger options. the ground beneath sank and formed a count there at. its cliffs a four hundred meters tall on average and its diameter is more than twelve kilometers.

use on plateau is flat but colorful. halter volcanic gases called fumaroles and sulphur towers transformed the surface. while the known chemical elements with unmixed in thermal springs mudholes miniature volcanoes and hot rivers and lakes which filled with strange bacteria and l.b. . for these basic life forms this strange well of boiling water and poisonous substances is a perfect environment. the clay crusts on the thermal grounds cover cavities filled with boiling clay. baz of the only ones who can find their way around them. footprints of the masters of the corrupt nature reserve can be found in various unexpected places. was it was some green grass on pez near the boiling groups and it that you see gross it's to who it was there barefoot but the bears can do it at

the same time they are for the boiling water. there's like going to the is own caldera in spring for mating in summer they mostly go to mountain rivers to fish for salmon. but the most attractive fishing spots for baz life far away from here on lake shores. lake creole is located south of the camp chant captain inshallah. in the northeast the volcano stands close to the shore. it rises into the cold humid air streams from the sea of a hot. thick fog often covers the pos ne of the volcano the passage through it provides the only means of reaching the lake by helicopter going by land or water is impossible. roughly five hundred people manage to visit lake correll during the

year. trip annoying island office several houses for tourists and the employees of the crew reserve. people from all over the world come here with a single purpose in mind to see brown beds in the wild. and. that. the why bears are very large. when they standing up in the river. it's impressive and most of all they are very quick because if this.

very very. quickly and that's impressed me very much. bands don't like it when somebody else goes into the water when they a fishing. distance is the most important thing for baz. you need to strictly keep that distance if you want to avoid a sudden outburst of aggression. and don't get any closer than fifteen metres. this thing in the middle it's a bear is approaching and. the rifle to shoot the beast away usually that helps. keeps moving the spectacle lloyd to flip and throw it under the animal's feet. this will give several seconds to think about what to do next is a really applied in extreme conditions it's a very supposing a direct threat to human life. business or life at.

forty two thousand americans die each year from car accidents only a thousand. seven hundred thousand people. and thirty two thousand will kill themselves cancer in all its forms kills five hundred sixty thousand of us here part disease is even more devastating it kills over eight hundred seventy thousand americans every year. in some of the weather in the value of guises changes instantaneously missed fills

the canyon it fades into the vapors of the hot springs and compass them with a haze. several years ago a massive landslide came down the valley when the same fick mist covered the area. even today the distinct borders of the slide can be clearly seen in the canyon. the powerful moving just centimeters away from a house and the helicopter pad. there with it is interesting that the mud slides diesel station twenty meters two of them stuck in the house an employee who was staying was saved. could have raised the entire tourist area to the ground. the mudslide blocked the giza near river and the water level to rise very quickly. lake that was created by a natural dam flooded many famous guises. it drastically changed the face of the

valley but didn't destroyed completely gradually the river washed away the land slide down. the top of the molokai growth a geyser which used to be completely. reappeared and is erupting once again. there's seldom visit the valley at this time of year that's why the reserve stuff can easily go ahead with their research. and. down to the bottom of the canyon several times a day. the giza ny river which is the valleys water runs through it. and of that to measure the depth and speed of the river. the returns to be able to breathe easier and they're requiring these places to

extend the tourist plants that are used to be bridges here before but they have been swept away several times if we want to know where the best place is to build a bridge these time so that the wanted doesn't wash it away once again. like most rivets in the camp. has no fish water isn't suitable for drinking. fountains that erupt from under the inflow into the river springs and water falls a full of poisonous acidic and alkaline compounds. the purity and the beauty of this mountain river lethal and deceptive but it's just one of a kind. in summer most rivers in kamchatka abound in shoals of fish their numbers are recorded by the kamchatka research institute of fisheries and oceanography located near the river estuary and the nature reserve. it's the only river that flows out of lake and carries its waters

to the sea of a halt. wild salmon from the pacific ocean swim up via to the spawning grounds and. how can they find the way to the report from the sea. to widespread point of view is that the fish itself by magnetic fields and currents you can't just the fish recognise its native. let's just call it a sense of smell taste of the river. the fish recording station has one single task that is to count the salmon heading for their spawning grounds the scientists method is simple the river is blocked by a dam as soon as a shoal of fish approaches it they pass through special enclosures where they are counted. the margin of error it's ten percent. as

a rule three people work here but none stay for a long period at any one time because of the dangerous proximity to the baz. however biologist you catarina is an exception she and her husband have spent their whole lives on the banks of lake. well my children have grown up at the station and my husband aleksei and i brought the daughter with us when she was almost two years old and his son when he was eighteen months old it's like permanently living on the frontline you're over still watching. a wild beast is a wild beast a bear will never become civilized nothing more than tempting food for it to hear your words. take up position around the clock near the fish stations damn they wait patiently

for the mass surge of fish to commence. in some a bad as live side by side with humans on the shore that's why mass towards a forbidden in this part of lake. a standard unsafe tourist route to become a nature reserve between the valley of guises and the volcano caldera. the most important thing is to not be afraid of flying by helicopter. even professional pilots find it hard to fly here if they're not from can charge first of all it is difficult to orient in this terrain will care nose on even ground not to mention the weather it's foggy windy and there can be moon going clubs. in summer the weather in the volcano caldera is usually warm. the formation of its

own microclimate is one of the surprises and inexplicable features of his own. in two thousand and eight a geyser sprang up in one of the thermal fields. it's found in shot up to six metres high. there is divided into five us film all fields but our days excursion will be along the east so millfield because it is a lot of just one and the most picturesque. the middle is heated by a hot underground pocket of magma and is where the main thermal zone is with its hundreds of hot springs warm lakes and steam vents. this unearthly landscape is shaped by hot gas and steam. sort of. springs so for x.

. i think it's good for tourists. for your company. at sunset after the working day the reserve staff who live in the use own county or allow themselves the luxury of bathing in bunyan lake. it's an unusual. filled with water temperature around forty degrees celsius that's about one hundred four degrees fahrenheit. you can see. the water in the spring. is the only way. we call it mud in fact these are not true. despite. it's impossible to bathe in them in the summer because it's very

cold. maybe volcanic in origin but the water temperature doesn't rise above five celsius that's just for. the beds feel comfortable and patiently hunt the salmon until. late in the evening. because gather on the pier to discuss and show off the results of. the most difficult thing not to snap a beer but to show the photo to. the. exclusive. fish. it's a hobby his photos have never been published anyway. dmitri prefers showing them to

his colleagues. promise to show you. come on don't be afraid. of pictures the whole morning. all right. come on my beauty over the net is the female of the air is nice and decent too if she keeps nice of you like us and if we said we're under her she's the boss here because we are much lower in rank was it worth it the gone beauty go on and on be like next time you go it is with you to make it a twelfth blues be here at twelve. bear cubs came to us the last time we were sitting here was due to be sniffed around us and went away when you lost usually.

the valley of guy says and the count there of the eurozone vocal you know of the three gems of the nature reserve. experience travel advice coming here once you've already seen much of the world because off to kamchatka everything else on the planet is going to look somewhat dull in comparison.

machine. which brightened if you move from phones to pressure it's. nice from the start on t.v. dot com.
